Abstract:The quest for harnessing light‐induced oscillatory motion, inspired by natural oscillations, has become a focus of scientific attention. Researchers are exploring the use of liquid crystal network (LCN) polymers and their integration with compatible materials as soft actuators. Of particular interest is the utilization of photostabilizers, which play a pivotal role in preserving the polymer against photodegradation. For this, three distinct derivatives of Tinuvin were chosen to explore their influence on the l… Show more
