Abstract:Silicone polymers have various applications such as sensors, energy harvesters, soft robotics, prosthetics and implants. Ecoflex has become one of the most remarkable silicone polymers due to its special mechanical properties which include extreme stretchability and biocompatibility. In recent years, interest in porous silicone elastomers has increased in order to improve the absorption, flexibility and chemical activity of the material by increasing the surface area. In this study, porous Ecoflex 00-30 silico… Show more
