Fatigue fracture of hydrogels
Rapid advances are taking place to develop hydrogels of high stretchability and toughness, but fatigue fracture has not been studied for any hydrogels. This negligence hinders the development of hydrogels and their applications. Herewe initiate a study of fatigue fracture of hydrogels.We choose polyacrylamide hydrogel as a model material. To place fatigue fracture in context, we apply monotonic...
متن کاملRapid self-healing hydrogels.
Synthetic materials that are capable of autonomous healing upon damage are being developed at a rapid pace because of their many potential applications. Despite these advancements, achieving self-healing in permanently cross-linked hydrogels has remained elusive because of the presence of water and irreversible cross-links. Here, we demonstrate that permanently cross-linked hydrogels can be eng...
متن کاملFracture Mechanics Fatigue of Double - Network Hydrogels
The discovery of tough hydrogels of many chemical compositions, and their emerging applications in medicine, clothing, and engineering, has raised a fundamental question: How do hydrogels behave under many cycles of stretch? This paper initiates the study of the fatigue behavior of the classic PAMPS/PAAM double network hydrogels discovered by Gong and her co-workers (Advanced Materials 15, 1155...
متن کاملRobust Self-Healing Hydrogels Assisted by Cross-Linked Nanofiber Networks
Given increasing environmental and energy issues, mimicking nature to confer synthetic materials with self-healing property to expand their lifespan is highly desirable. Just like human skin recovers itself upon damage with the aid of nutrient-laden blood vascularization, designing smart materials with microvascular network to accelerate self-healing is workable but continues to be a challenge....
