What the study found The study found that a two-step composite hydrogel design can separate mechanical and electrical optimization in a strain-sensing material. The resulting PAAm@PPy hydrogel combined soft-tissue-like stiffness, high stretchability, low mechanical hysteresis, and electrical conductivity. Why the authors say this matters The authors say the work establishes a conductive hydrogel design paradigm…
