Research summary
AI-generated

Yutong Yang works on developing hydrogel-based materials, often from plant-derived components like lignin and cellulose, for use in flexible sensors, wound healing, and wearable electronics. Much of this research focuses on making these hydrogels stretchable, self-healing, antibacterial, and resistant to environmental conditions like UV light and temperature changes. Related work also touches on wastewater treatment, flame-retardant coatings, and materials degradation.
