Controlled macroscopic shape evolution of self-growing polymeric materials by Xinhong Xiong, Xiaozhuang Zhou, Haohui Zhang, Michael Aizenberg, Yuxing Yao, Yuhang Hu, Joanna Aizenberg, Jiaxi Cui

“…We show that a flat square sample can be transformed into a sphere through growth without the need for remolding and preprogramming. By varying the composition of the monomer mixture provided to the samples, and the modes of triggering and shutting down polymerization, we achieve exquisite control over growing polymeric objects into various sizes and shapes, modulating their mechanical properties, self-healing ability, and availability of active sites for further growth from a desired location. …”
