JACS: Micrometer‑scale precision—Aerosol jet printing enables controlled patterning and integration of COF thin films.

In the field of materials science, covalent organic frameworks (COFs) are regarded as promising candidates for next-generation high-performance materials, owing to their high specific surface area, tunable pore structures, and exceptional functionality. However, conventional synthesis methods for COFs often encounter significant challenges in processing, shaping, and patterning: they are typically insoluble in common solvents, making it difficult to fabricate them into thin films or complex architectures using standard techniques.

Nano Letters: Aerosol-Jet-Printed MXene–CNF Soft Actuators Unlock New Possibilities for Soft Robotics

In today’s era of rapid technological advancement, soft robotics is transitioning from the laboratory to real-world applications—ranging from minimally invasive surgical instruments in medicine and flexible actuation units for wearable devices to precise motion control in microrobots—all of which hinge on breakthroughs in the core component: soft actuators. Traditional soft actuators either face challenges in miniaturization, lack design flexibility, or rely on wired power supplies that constrain mobility. A recent study published in Nano Letters, however, reports an MXene–cellulose nanofiber (CNF) composite actuator fabricated via aerosol jet printing (AJP), which simultaneously addresses three major bottlenecks—scalability, customization, and multi‑stimulus responsiveness—paving the way for the next generation of soft robotics.
