An Artificial Muscle with Lamellar Structure Based on a Nematic Triblock Copolymer
Abstract
A muscle-like material with a lamellar structure has been prepared for the first time from a liquid-crystalline triblock copolymer. The material consists of a repeated series of nematic-polymer blocks and conventional rubber blocks. The motor for the contraction is the reversible macromolecular-chain shape change, from stretched to spherical, of the nematic polymer that occurs at the nematic-to-isotropic phase transition.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
