Abstract

The invention discloses a light-driven shape-programmable MXene composite hydrogel driver and a preparation method thereof. The light-driven shape-programmable MXene composite hydrogel driver is formed by copolymerization of a polymerizable MXene nano monomer and thermosensitive PNIPAM hydrogel in-situ free radicals. The distribution of MXene and the anisotropy of a hydrogel network can be controlled by utilizing a low electric field, so that various biologically excited programmable anisotropic hydrogel drivers are developed by controlling an ITO electrode pattern, a direct-current electric field direction and mask-assisted ultraviolet polymerization. The invention provides a new development insight of a programmable and reconfigurable intelligent driver, and the intelligent driver can have application prospects in various fields.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of intelligent soft robots, in particular to a light-driven shape-programmable MXene composite hydrogel driver and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Intelligent drives capable of generating force or motion in response to external stimuli are ubiquitous in living organisms and biological systems. For example, human behavior is usually triggered by nerve signals with longitudinally arranged cylindrical muscle fibers of skeletal muscle, and then the contraction generates mechanical force to drive the formation. Many plants (such as pine cones) open and close in a humid environment, mainly through water absorption and dehydration of cells or tissues with anisotropically oriented cellulose fibrils. Therefore, structural anisotropy plays an important role in force generation and large-scale transport in biological systems. Drawing inspiration from nature, extensive efforts have been dev...
