We report a general design strategy for creating polymeric materials that are capable of providing global, macroscopic changes in their properties in response to specific local and fleeting stimuli. In a proof-of-concept demonstration, a single polymer is used, yet it enables selective responses to specific stimuli, and then internally drives a macroscopic change in the material (even in locations not exposed to the stimulus), where the magnitude of change is independent of the intensity of the applied stimulus.
我们报告了一种用于创建聚合物材料的通用设计策略,该材料能够响应特定的局部短暂刺激,在其性能上产生整体的宏观变化。在一个概念验证演示中,使用了单一聚合物,但它能够对特定刺激产生选择性响应,然后在材料内部驱动宏观变化(即使在未暴露于刺激的位置),变化的幅度与所施加刺激的强度无关。
