4.4.4 - Characterization of Biodegradable Magnetic Elastomers for Mechanical Stimulation in Organ-on-Chip Platforms
Year: 2026
Type: conference-paper
Abstract: This work reports the characterization of a biodegradable magneto-active elastomer composite based on poly(octamethylene maleate (anhydride) citrate) (POMaC) embedded with carbonyl iron particles (CIP).Biodegradable magneto-active elastomer composites with 10-40 wt.% CIP are characterized for morphology, magnetic response, mechanical behavior, and cytocompatibility.Processed into thin bilayer scaffolds, the optimized 20 wt.% composite delivers reproducible cyclic deformation with millimeter-scale tip displacement and ~7% tensile strain under 70 mT fields, with >97% cytocompatibility.
