This study investigates the incorporation of cellulose as a bio-based modifier into polyurethane foam and its effects on molecular interactions, morphology, thermal behavior, and mechanical performance. Polyurethane foam was synthesized using polypropylene glycol (PPG 2000), toluene diisocyanate (TDI), water, and cellu...

Stimuli-responsive hydrogels capable of reversible volume change are promising materials for soft actuators, sensors, and biomedical systems. However, conventional poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAAm) hydrogels typically exhibit slow thermal responses due to limited water transport and the formation of a dense skin...
