Magnetic Elastomers with Smart Variable Elasticity Mimetic to Sea Cucumber

Magnetic Elastomers with Smart Variable Elasticity Mimetic to Sea Cucumber

A magnetic-responsive elastomer consisting of magnetic elastomer and zinc oxide with a tetrapod shape and long arms was fabricated mimetic to the tissue of sea cucumber in which collagen fibrils are dispersed. Only the part of magnetic elastomer is active to magnetic fields, zinc oxide plays a role...
