Abstract:Traditional synthetic hydrogels for flexible electronic
devices
are mostly derived from nonsustainable polymers, resulting in environmental
pollution. Herein, scalable, moldable, and stretchable ionic hydrogels
are synthesized utilizing two model biopolymers, κ-carrageenan
(κ-CG) and amylopectin (Amy). In such hydrogels, physically
cross-linked κ-CG networks work as a relatively rigid component
to maintain the shape of hydrogels, Amy networks cross-linked by borate/cis-diol
dynamic covalent bonds help to impro… Show more
