Hydrogels nanocomposites, magnetic

Microvalves are sometimes regarded as a part of micropumps in many reviews [263]. In recent years, new methods for the valves have been reported, as summarized in Table 5. A magnetic hydrogel nanocomposite valve was utilized for remote... 

Fig. 9 Effect of an alternating magnetic field on a NIPAAm/iron oxide-based hydrogel nanocomposite. (a, b) The collapsing response of the hydrogel system upon the increase in temperature from the heating of the magnetic particles in the AC magnetic fields and (c, d) NIPAAm/iron oxide-based hydrogel nanocomposite without magnetic field...
