Polybenzoxazole Nanofiber-Reinforced Moisture-Responsive Soft Actuators

Abstract Hydromorphic biological systems, such as morning glory flowers, pinecones, and awns, have inspired researchers to design moisture-sensitive soft actuators capable of directly converting the change of moisture into motion or mechanical work. Here, we report a moisture-sensitive poly(p-phenyl...
