Real‐Time and Quantitative Monitoring of Soft Robotic Elastomer Crosslinking via Magnetic Levitation (Adv. Mater. Technol. 4/2026)

Year: 2026

Type: article

Abstract: Soft Robotic Elastomer Crosslinking This cover depicts a highly sensitive and cost-effective magnetic levitation (Maglev)-based physical sensing method for reliable, real-time monitoring of elastomer crosslinking, crucial for deep-sea soft robots' performance and manufacturing quality. This method is the first demonstration of high-precision polymer curing monitoring based on physical property sensing rather than chemical analysis, representing a novel in situ quantification strategy. More details can be found in the Research Article by Chengqian Zhang, Peng Zhao, and co-workers (10.1002/admt.202501531).
