Eco-Friendly Hydrogel for Wearable Electronics

This innovative hydrogel addresses the need for sustainable and effective wearable electronics. Made from natural biopolymers, it is a stretchable, transparent, and skin-friendly material used as an adhesive interface or standalone sensor. Its high-quality signal acquisition surpasses commercial electrodes, and its biodegradability reduces environmental impact. Easy to produce with a simple one-pot method, this hydrogel can be customised for various biomedical applications through reversible 3D printing, offering versatility and a minimal ecological footprint
