摘要
Switching a material between highly elastic and plastic would be of great use in many fields but has proven to be extremely challenging. In article number 1906870, Jinyao Liu and co-workers report the use of mechanical strength competition between two networks in a hybrid gel material composed of an elastic polymer network and a shear-thinning nanofiber network, to switch between elasticity and plasticity. This method is anticipated to be of value for engineering of various functional gel materials that can adapt for applications in drug delivery, tissue engineering, and regenerative medicines.
