A gel is composed of three-dimensionally crosslinked polymer chain and solvents such as water. Especially, a stimuli responsive polymer gel is known to generate volume change by external stimulation. A BZ gel contains metal catalyst for Belousov - Zhabotinsky (BZ) reaction, and generates autonomous motion coupled with the BZ reaction. BZ reaction demonstrates chemical oscillation and chemical waves. In this study, we investigated chemical waves in BZ gels under strain.
