Extraordinary long range order in self-healing non-close packed 2D arrays
Non-close packed two-dimensional arrays of hydrogel microspheres with exceptional long range order are fabricated by exploiting the remarkable properties of hydrogels such as tunable solubility and self-healing. By addition of alcohol hydrogel microspheres self-assemble at the air/liquid interface i...

| Summary: | Non-close packed two-dimensional arrays of hydrogel microspheres with exceptional long range order are fabricated by exploiting the remarkable properties of hydrogels such as tunable solubility and self-healing. By addition of alcohol hydrogel microspheres self-assemble at the air/liquid interface into highly crystalline domains which can be merged using mechanical force. |
