Multi‐synergistic strategy for dual‐sensing conductive hydrogels capable of simultaneous strain and temperature monitoring

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
In this study, a multicomponent synergistic strategy is utilized, which capitalizes on the “intersection” of multiple functional influencing factors to achieve the successful development of a multifunctional hydrogel. Through the construction of a unique three‐dimensional dynamic cross‐linked network, the material combines mechanical strength ...

The research progress in polyethylene oxide polymer electrolytes

open access: yesFlexMat, EarlyView.
Polyethylene oxide (PEO) has become the mainstream matrix material for solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) due to its excellent lithium salt complexation ability and processability. However, its high crystallinity results in low ionic conductivity at room temperature and difficulty in suppressing lithium dendrite growth, which significantly hinders the ...
