Siloxane crosslinks with dynamic bond exchange enable shape programming in liquid-crystalline elastomers

Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCE) undergo reversible shape changes in response to stimuli, which enables a wide range of smart applications, in soft robotics, adhesive systems or biomedical medical devices. In this study, we introduce a new dynamic covalent chemistry based on siloxane equilibrium...
