Research Abstract |
We have studied on hybrid soft materials (e.g., nanocomposite (NC) gels and soft NC (M-NCs)) with unique organic (polymer)/inorganic (clay) network structures. Novel NC gels consisting of PEG/clay system and a new synthetic procedure using photopolymerization have been developed. Also, we analyzed the network structure in detail and revealed the structure-property relationships. Further, we explored to find new functions of NC gel and M-NCs, such as pattern formation, drug delivery, abnormal swelling, cell culture and subsequent detachment, control of phase transition, etc.
