Biosafe, self-adhesive, recyclable, tough, and conductive hydrogels for multifunctional sensors

, respectively. The excellent mechanical properties and high conductivity guarantee that the PSAB hydrogel can successfully serve as a multifunctional sensor for detecting small activities and large-scale movements of the human body through strain and pressure changes. Meanwhile, the long-lasting potent and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity, combined with good in vitro biocompatibility, guarantees the biological safety and non-toxicity of the PSAB hydrogel. These compelling features, such as high flexibility and elasticity, high adhesion, multi-functional sensing and recyclability, as well as biological safety, pave the way for the application of PSAB hydrogel e-skin in biomedicine.
