Abstract
AbstractSensing sponge materials with light weight, high elasticity, and electrical sensing properties are in enormous demand in electronic fields, but there is an imminent need to develop a scalable and facile method for the manufacture of the sensing material. Herein, an efficient in situ polymerization and convenient preparation process is reported to manufacture the microporous liquid metal/carbon nanotube‐polysulfide rubber (LM/CNT‐PSR) sponges with excellent mechanical and electrical properties, based on fluidic LMs and rigid CNTs with unique synergistic effect for sponge composites. Excellent mechanical properties of LM/CNT‐PSR sponges, such as low density, excellent elasticity, remarkable mechanical recoverability, and self‐healing property, are endowed by the interconnected microporous structure of sponge and flexible polysulfide rubber matrix with disulfide bonds. In addition, the synergistic effect of LMs and CNTs leads to excellent conductivity and unique electrical sensing property under mechanical pressure. Microporous LM/CNT‐PSR sponges with high performance and simple fabrication process are promising sensing materials for various electronic devices, such as human motion monitoring, and weighing sensing.
