Yanxia Feng @YanxiaFENG93 will show her poster about "What's soft, tough and highly swelling?" Hydroelastomers! What happens if you embed highly swelling hydrogel particles inside tough, water-​permeable, elastomeric matrices? (spoiler🚨: great mechanics) pubs.rsc.org/en/Content/Arti…

Hydroelastomers: soft, tough, highly swelling composites

Inspired by the cellular design of plant tissue, we present an approach to make versatile, tough, highly water-swelling composites. We embed highly swelling hydrogel particles inside tough, water-p...
