About

Nicolas R. Tanguy is pioneering the field of sustainable iontronics and soft electronics, with a focus on developing transient, biocompatible materials from natural biopolymers. His research centers on creating high-performance strain sensors and flexible electronic components that are both environmentally friendly and thermally stable. Tanguy’s major contributions include the development of eutectogel nanocomposites—such as his highly cited work on gelatin and cellulose nanocrystals for dual-response iontronic strain sensors (30 citations)—which overcome the limitations of petroleum-based conductive composites by offering expanded strain ranges and transient functionality. He has also advanced heat-resistant nanofiber networks for lightweight polymer composites and all-natural agar eutectogels for thermally stable transient iontronics (7 citations). With a growing citation impact, Tanguy’s work is shaping the next generation of soft electronics for healthcare and robotics, emphasizing biodegradability and thermal resilience. His innovative approach to combining deep eutectic solvents with biopolymers marks a significant step toward sustainable, high-performance electronic materials that can safely degrade after use.
