Multimodal Remote Actuation and Sensing in Polymers

Read the new collection in Materials Advances

We are delighted to introduce our new themed collection focusing on remote actuation in polymers.

Guest Edited by Lorenzo Bardella (University of Brescia, Italy),Mohammad Luqman (Taibah University, Saudi Arabia) and Vinay Deep Punetha (P P Savani University, India).

 

A message from the Guest Editors:

“Hopefully, readers will find these fascinating papers from diverse research domains enlightening, broadening the understanding of the extensive research on stimuli-responsive materials and inspiring new investigations on innovative applications for these versatile materials.”

 

A small selection of the papers are featured below:

Did you know?

At Materials Advances, our themed collections are built by collaboration between our Guest Editors and expert Associate Editors. Our Guest Editors guide the scope and curate the contributions in our collections but all submissions are handled through peer review by our team of resident Associate Editors. This means that as an author you receive a consistent experience, and as a reader you can trust the quality of the science being presented.

If you have an idea for a topical collection in your research field, we’d love to hear from you! Get in touch here.
