Abstract

In recent years, we developed the application using self-oscillating polymer gels. The self-oscillating polymer gels are realized by incorporating the Belousov-Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction to stimuli-responsive polymer gels. Self-oscillating polymer gels perform peristalsis and pulsatile motion, generating waves periodically propagated in the gels. However, BZ reaction generates carbon dioxide. Generation of carbon dioxide is a problem for the application. Recently, the bubble free BZ reaction has been found. The bubble free BZ reaction is realized by using 1.4-Cyclohexanedione (CHD). However, the physical and chemical condition for the self-oscillating polymer gels is not revealed. In this study, we investigated the concentration of the solution and examined the conditions that can be observed displacement of the self-oscillating polymer gels.
