A 3D printed adhesive and conductive hydrogel with super-anti-freezing property is reported. This hydrogel exhibits excellent stretchability (elongation up to 3920%), outstanding adhesive behavior (adhesion strength up to 61 kPa), as well as marvelous anti-freezing ability (glass transition temperature as low as −96.3 °C). The present 3D printed hydrogel can be used as a sensor with a broad strain range to monitor human motions, slight physiological changes even at an extremely low temperature of −80 °C. Moreover, the hydrogel based self-adhesive electrodes can adhere to human skin directly to collect electrocardiogram, electro-oculogram and electromyogram signals accurately, promising the hydrogel electrodes to serve as a human-machine interface for controlling synchronized motion of anthropomorphic robots, exemplified by playing the piano. We also show that fingers of extraman can be precisely controlled via the self-adhesive hydrogel electrodes even at extremely low temperature of −80 °C. Therefore, the hydrogel fabricated by 3D printing is supposed to have promising potential applications in wearable devices, human-machine interactions, and intelligent bio-electronics, especially under harsh environmental conditions such as extreme low temperature.

3D打印的超强防冻自粘人机界面

据报道,具有超强防冻性能的3D打印粘合剂和导电水凝胶。这种水凝胶具有出色的拉伸性(伸长率高达3920%),出色的粘合性能(高达61 kPa的粘合强度)以及出色的抗冻能力(玻璃化转变温度低至-96.3°C)。本发明的3D打印水凝胶可以用作具有宽应变范围的传感器,即使在极低的-80°C温度下,也可以监测人体运动和轻微的生理变化。此外,基于水凝胶的自粘电极可以直接粘附在人体皮肤上,以准确地收集心电图,眼电位图和肌电图信号,从而有望将水凝胶电极用作人机界面来控制拟人机器人的同步运动,例如玩耍钢琴。我们还表明,即使在极低的-80°C温度下,也可以通过自粘水凝胶电极精确控制Extraman的手指。因此,通过3D打印制造的水凝胶被认为在可穿戴设备,人机交互和智能生物电子学中具有广阔的应用前景,尤其是在极端环境下(例如极端低温)。
