3D printing is revolutionizing the manufacturing sector due to the myriad of materials and techniques available. Furthermore, it allows decentralized production sites for both industry and the public. However, it is restricted to static structures that cannot react to external stimuli or adapt to the environment and are, therefore, not suitable for functional and motile parts. Recently, two approaches are proposed to give dynamism to 3D printed structures: the printing of “stimulus‐responsive” (a.k.a. smart) materials and “4D printing,” the first implying features change due to a stimulus while the second indicating the time evolution of properties after a stimulus activation. Nanomaterials, particularly 2D nanomaterials, exhibit a broad and distinctive combination of features. Thus, they are highly effective at enabling this dynamism due to their morphological, optoelectrical, and mechanical properties. This review summarizes recent advances in 3D/4D printing of smart deformable and stimuli‐responsive materials which utilize 2D nanomaterials. The benefits of 2D materials in this framework are summarized, and how to translate their potential into 3D/4D printing is also discussed. The most promising achievements to date are deformable piezoresistive materials for strain sensing, Joule heaters, and actuators. Future advancements and possible upcoming application areas are finally proposed.

“…Therefore, developing rapid deicing devices is essential to help maintain the performance of electronic products, especially in the aerospace industry. In recent years, tremendous efforts have been devoted to finding materials for deicing, such as electroconductive textiles, carbon nanotubes (CNTs), sprayable metal layers, and carbon fibers (CFs) [ 7 , 8 , 9 , 10 ]. Among these, highly efficient, lightweight, and flexible materials are vital for applications based on electronic devices.…”

Homogenously dispersed Cu oxide nanoparticles on laser-induced graphene (LIG) were fabricated using a simple two-step laser irradiation. This work emphasized the synergetic photo-electrothermal effect in Cu oxide particles embedded in LIG. Our flexible hybrid composites exhibited high mechanical durability and excellent thermal properties. Moreover, the Cu oxide nanoparticles in the carbon matrix of LIG enhanced the light trapping and multiple electron internal scattering for the electrothermal effect. The best conditions for deicing devices were also studied by controlling the amount of Cu solution. The deicing performance of the sample was demonstrated, and the results indicate that the developed method could be a promising strategy for maintaining lightness, efficiency, excellent thermal performance, and eco-friendly 3D processing capabilities.

“…[5][6][7] The methods employed in such anti-icing technology can be divided into active de-icing 8 and passive de-icing. 9,10 The passive de-icing method consumes almost no energy and instead employs a modified substrate 1 School of Mechanics, Civil Engineering and Architecture, Northwestern Polytechnical University, Xi'an, China surface coating material to reduce the adhesion of water, ice, etc., and then realize de-icing through a combination of wind and gravity. 11 However, presently available passive de-icing technologies can only delay icing, and their anti-icing effects are lost after the coating material surface freezes.…”

Electro-impulse de-icing is a lightweight type of mechanical de-icing system that consumes little energy, provides high reliability, and offers wide application prospects. In this study, the bond-based peridynamics theory was used to simulate the dynamic damage process and evolution law of aircraft electro-impulse de-icing. The ice layer was simplified as a brittle material that satisfies the linear elastic constitutive relation. A numerical analysis model of the ice layer, aircraft skin substrate, and their interface was established to simulate the dynamic responses under a high strain rate. Considering the anisotropy of ice adhesion on the substrate, the interfacial bonds were described as shear bonds and tensile bonds, and the critical elongations of the two were derived. The tensile and shear capacities of the ice on the substrate were then simulated using these critical elongations, and the peeling rates of single ice particles and interfacial ice layers were taken as indexes describing the efficacy of electro-impulse de-icing. The process of electro-impulse de-icing was then analyzed for an aluminum substrate with two adjacent clamped edges. Finally, the results of the peridynamic simulation were compared with those of existing experiments and finite element models to verify the effectiveness of the peridynamic approach.
