Micelle–Micelle Cross-Linked Highly Stretchable Conductive Hydrogels for Potential Applications of Strain and Electronic Skin Sensors

Chemistry of Materials, Journal Year: 2023, Volume and Issue: 35(14), P. 5582 - 5592

Published: July 7, 2023

Wearable sensors made of flexible and stretchable hydrogels have garnered significant attention. However, their use has been limited by poor mechanical performance, such as toughness, self-recovery, a large response–recovery time. To overcome these limitations, we developed novel cross-linking agent-based hydrogel with high stretchability, antifatigue properties, good conductivity. These were introducing l-glutamic acid (LGA) into hydrophobically cross-linked polyacrylamide (PAmm) chains. In this system, LGA dynamically the micelle–micelle micelle–polymer chains greatly regulates properties hydrogels. The noncovalent synergistic interactions that came insertion enable to achieve stretchability stress values, fast self-recovery behaviors without help foreign stimuli. Additionally, LGA-based can function durable highly sensitive strain for detecting various deformations time gauge factor value. As result, capability be designed wearable are capable human joint motions, neck twisting, bending, wrist, finger, elbow movements. Similarly, monitoring different subtle motions speaking differentiating between words, swallowing, drinking through larynx vibrations. Besides ability differentiate reproduce written words reliability. LGA-regulated potential applications in electric skins, medical monitoring, soft robotics, touch panels.

Design of admirable conductive hydrogels combining robust toughness, soft flexibility, desirable conductivity, and freezing resistance remains daunting challenges for meeting the customized critical demands flexible wearable electronics. Herein, a promising facile strategy to prepare tailored these anticipated is proposed, which prepared in one step by homogeneous cross-linking acrylamide using hydrophobic divinylbenzene stabilized micelles under saturated high-saline solutions. The influence environments on hydrogel topology mechanical performance investigated. suppress size cross-linkers during polymerization, weaken dynamic associations soften hydrogels. Nevertheless, cross-linked networks ensure antifracture ultralarge deformations. obtained show special extremely deformability features (Young's modulus, 5 kPa; stretchability, 10200%; 134 kJ m-2; excellent anticrack propagation). saturated-saline also endow with ion conductivity (106 mS cm-1) (<20 °C). These comprehensive properties are quite suitable electronic applications, demonstrated high sensitivity durability derived strain sensors.

Multiple-Language-Responsive Conductive Hydrogel Composites for Flexible Strain and Epidermis Sensors

ACS Applied Polymer Materials, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 6(7), P. 4233 - 4243

Published: March 22, 2024

Conductive hydrogels are considered highly promising materials for developing skin-like sensors due to their excellent biocompatibility and mechanical flexibility. However, limited stretchability, low toughness, fatigue resistance hinder sensing capabilities durability. To overcome these limitations, we developed a conductive hydrogel composite with high performance the ability respond identify different languages. The prepared by incorporating functionalized multiwalled carbon tubes (F-CNTs) into hydrophobically associated polyacrylamide (AM) lauryl methacrylate (Lmc) hydrogels. ensure uniform dispersion of F-CNTs in network, cationic surfactant cetyldimethylethylammonium bromide (CDAB) is used; carboxylic group on cross-links micelles polymer chains through electrostatic interactions. also facilitates formation hydrophobic interactions between matrix F-CNT surface. This greatly improves properties hydrogel, resulting stretchability 2016%, toughness 551.56 kJ m–3, an antifatigue property. exhibits tensile strain sensitivity gauge factor 4.69 at 600% strain. hybrid hydrogel-based demonstrate capabilities, not only detecting full-range human activities but differentiating languages (English, Urdu, Pushto) both speaking writing. Besides sensing, has capability mimic skin touchable screen like metal. These results highlight potential F-CNT-based as wearable sensor flexible devices.
