PG - 8733-8736 LID - 10.1039/c8cc04967j [doi] AB - A multi degree of freedom ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) active catheter with controllable bending ability (from micrometer to millimeter level) under a low voltage ( approximately 1.0 V) was developed. And its actuation properties were enhanced effectively through a molecular-regulation strategy.
