Directional and path-finding motion of polymer hydrogels driven by liquid mixing

The spreading of a miscible liquid with a low surface tension on a water surface generates the directional motion of submerged polymer hydrogels, which could be attributed to convective flows resulting from the gradient of surface tension along the surface (Marangoni effect). The direction and veloc...
