Human expressed Human expressed in in a water content the network of . Living bodies are made from soft organisms except skeletons (, teeth, shell, etc.)

Examples: blood vessel, muscle , tendon, ligament, etc.

The soft organisms contain 50~80% of water. They are soft & wet materials. Specific functions of soft and wet organs Joint cartilage Blood vessel 〇 Shock absorb Penetration 〇 Lubrication 〇 Lubrication 〇 Low frictional

coefcient ~0.001 ⇒Exchange of

materials ⇒Smooth motion

Previous artificial organs have been made from Hard & Dry Materials: These functions cannot be worked. Artificial Joint Artificial Vessel Shock absorb × Penetration × Lubrication △ Lubrication △

Water Content 90% Breaking Compression 40MPa J. P. Gong, Y. Katsuyama, T. Kurokawa, Y. Osada, Adv. Mater. 15, 1155 (2003) DN gels’ fracture energy is 1,000 times higher <1st> PAMPS <2nd> PAAm

Water content ~ 90% Electrolyte ( rigid & brittle ) Compress fracture : 10-40MPa Neutral ( soft & ductile ) (Can compare with cartilage in joint)

PAMPS gel + PAAm gel = DN gel

J.-P. Gong,Cannot Y. Katsuyama, be explained T. Kurokawa, based Y. Osada, on Adv.the Mater.previous 15, 1155 theories (2003) Figure out: Low frictional Tough gels

Both Toughness 40MPa~400kgf/cm2 and Low Friction µ≒10-4 means…
