Through the synergistic action of topological network reconfiguration of sodium alginate and dynamic entanglement of AgNFs, conductive hydrogel fibers with a multiscale energy dissipation system are fabricated. They demonstrate ultrastretchability (8226%), high strength (220 kPa). Simultaneously, through stress-induced directional alignment of AgNFs and the disentanglement of the polymer topological network, a dynamic coupling relationship between mechanical properties and electrical conductivity is established, attaining a high electrical conductivity of 15.1 S/m and enabling reversible regulation of electrical conductivity within a certain strain range. This multilevel structural synergy strategy transcends the performance triangle constraint of traditional hydrogels in terms of “strength-ductility-conductivity”, offering a novel design concept for the development of flexible electronics.
