A general synthetic strategy for multifunctional actuators is presented, by confining desired functions in separate domains of interpenetrating polymer network materials. Specifically, complementary ionic actuator and shape-memory functions are demonstrated by simultaneous, orthogonal reaction pathways. Synergistic effects also allow dynamic programming and two-way linear shape-memory actuation.
