Continuous Spinning of High-Tough Hydrogel Fibers for Flexible Electronics by Using Regional Heterogeneous Polymerization.

ABSTRACT: Hydrogel fibers have attracted substantial interest for application in flexible electronics due to their ionic conductivity, high specific surface area, and ease of constructing multidimensional structures. However, universal continuous spinning methods for hydrogel fibers are yet lacking. Based on the hydrophobic mold induced regional heterogeneous polymerization, a universal self-lubricating spinning (SLS) strategy for the continuous fabrication of hydrogel fibers from monomers is developed. The universality of the SLS strategy is demonstrated by the successful spinning of 10 vinyl monomer-based hydrogel fibers. Benefiting from the universality of the SLS strategy, the SLS strategy can be combined with pre-gel design and post-treatment toughening to prepare highly entangled polyacrylamid
