Abstract

In article number 1702170, Xu Hou and co-workers show a universal strategy for building flexible microfluidic devices with applications in strain sensors and pressure-flow regulating devices. These devices exhibit superior mechanical deformability, including high strain and recovery ability. With further surface physicochemical modification, the devices can also gain anti-fouling properties for a broad range of potential industrial and biomedical applications.
