摘要
Ionic skin(I-skin)is an emerging skin-inspired sensor that has received increasing interest for the next-generation wearable electronics.However,profound challenges for I-skin remain in achieving multiple signal responses(e.g.,strain,pressure,and humidity)and self-healability to fully mimic human skin.Herein,a Fe;ion-coordinated poly(acrylic acid)ionogel(PAIFe)with high stretchability,extreme temperature tolerance,and self-healing capability is prepared by a dynamic ionic cross-linking strategy.The ionic coordination in the PAIFe contributes to the formation of a highly dynamic network,achieving its high-efficient and reliable self-healing performance even at a low temperature of-20℃.Using of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate([BMIm][BF^(3+)])as the solvent achieves a widetemperature tolerance of the PAIFe under low and high temperatures.More interestingly,a humidity sensing function is realized in the PAIFe by skillfully utilizing the hygroscopic properties of[BMIm][BF_(4)].The resultant PAIFe is proof-ofconcept demonstrated as a deformation-tolerant ionic conductor in a skin-inspired ionic sensor,showing a variety of sensory capabilities towards compression,strain and humidity.
离子皮肤(I-skin)作为一类新兴的类皮肤传感器,在下一代可穿戴电子领域受到了越来越多的关注.然而,I-skin在实现多重刺激响应(如应变、压力和湿度等)和模仿皮肤的自修复功能等方面,仍然面临着大的挑战.本文通过动态离子交联策略,制备了具有高可拉伸、耐极端温度和可自修复的Fe;离子配位聚丙烯酸离子凝胶(PAIFe).PAIFe中高度动态的离子配位作用和氢键交联结构,使离子凝胶即使在-20℃低温条件下仍具有高效的自修复性能.1-丁基-3-甲基咪唑四氟硼酸盐([BMIm][BF_(4)])作为离子凝胶的分散介质,赋予了PAIFe良好的抗冻/耐热性能.更有趣的是,通过巧妙地利用[BMIm][BF4]的吸湿特性,实现了PAIFe对环境湿度的传感功能.作为概念性验证,PAIFe作为可拉伸离子导体可组装成多模式感知的类皮肤传感器,在湿度、压缩和应变的不同外界刺激下表现出良好的响应能力.
