The phrase "adaptive material" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used to describe materials that can change their properties or behavior in response to external stimuli, often in the context of engineering, design, or technology.
Example: "The new adaptive material used in the construction of the building allows it to adjust to temperature changes, improving energy efficiency."
Alternatives: "responsive material" or "smart material".
The research is part of broader work at the Wyss Institute on adaptive material technologies, led by Aizenberg, and is the first journal publication from the Adaptive Living Environment (ALivE) project, a collaboration between AMT and GSD supported by Wyss Institute.
Adaptive Material Technologies: Biomimetic building materials for sustainability that respond to environmental cues like living organisms.

4/23 George Whitesides and Chuck Hoberman gave presentations during the Adaptive Material Technologies session at the retreat.
2/5 Wyss Institute Lead Staff Scientist Michael Aizenberg primarily works in the Programmable Nanomaterials and Adaptive Material Technologies platforms.
Given her broad range of research, she is active in most of the Wyss Institute Focus Areas: Adaptive Material Technologies, Bioinspired Robotics, Biomimetic Microsystems, Systems Biology, and Programmable Nanomaterials.
The structure is made from digitally knitted and robotically woven lightweight, high-performance and adaptive materials.
Another project under development uses adaptive materials to make artificial skeletal muscle tissue which looks, feels and works like real body parts.
In 15 to 20 years, it's possible that the bodywork of cars could be made from adaptive materials, in which case dents could self-repair.
One of the building blocks for the development of aerial vehicles is adaptive materials, which we are working on at Auburn.
Adaptive materials will also be used in hospitals, eventually allowing outpatient treatment of a wide range of health problems, from heart attacks to cancers considered inoperable.
