ABSTRACT This study explores the development of soft, super‐stretchable artificial muscles by 4D printing composite thermoplastic elastomers. A propylene‐based elastomer, combined with carbon black (CB) nanoparticles, is utilized to develop nanocomposite elastomers enhanced mechanical properties. pellet‐based material extrusion technique employed overcome challenges filament buckling in traditional filament‐based methods. The pure elastomer exhibits an elongation at break 4048% and a tensile strength 3.71 MPa, while optimal (2% CB) achieves 2665% 5.58 MPa. Scanning electron microscopy confirms that high‐quality well‐bonded layers achievable. shape memory properties printed are assessed through cyclic tests. It demonstrates material's ability recover its original after deformation drop each cycle controllable CB reinforcements. Innovative inspired chameleon's tongue, achieving significant strain recovery lifting capabilities. Objects varying weights lifted these muscles, showcasing potential for soft robotics actuators. creating highly stretchable, efficient highlighted, offering promising applications fields requiring high elasticity performance.
