Abstract:In the burgeoningfield of wearable electronics, flexible and durable conductors that can maintain consistent electrical properties under various conditions are critically needed. This research investigates the potential of a composite material combining eutectic gallium-indium (EGaIn) with a polybutadiene-based urethane (PBU) to meet these demands. EGaIn is selected for its superior conductivity, which is attributed to its low melting point, allowing for consistent performance. However, the challenge lies in i… Show more
