The in-situ locked bubbles create an AirCell structure that lowers the gel's Young's modulus, allowing it to rapidly conform to skin deformations. A novel conductive hydrogel, termed AirCell Hydrogel ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) Hydrogel materials show great promise for developing next-generation wearable sensors due to their flexibility, biocompatibility and tunable electrical properties. However, it ...
A dual-network hydrogel (PGEH) cross-linked via liquid metal induction was developed exhibiting remarkable mechanical properties and skin-temperature-triggered on-demand adhesion capabilities. The ...
Sweetener-powered breakthrough: A Sungkyunkwan and Kyung Hee University team used stevia to enhance hydrogel-based nanogenerators, improving strength, conductivity, and transparency. Durable and ...
