Abstract
- A composite with shape memory‐assisted self‐healing and piezoresistive sensing ability is presented herein, and its high conductivity is attributed to a small amount of well‐dispersed carbon black (CB). Carboxylic acid groups are introduced into the polyvinyl butyral (PVB) side chain via the ring‐opening reaction of succinic anhydride. Thus, CB is well‐dispersed in the solution owing to simultaneous attraction and electrostatic repulsion. The resulting ink with less than 30 wt.% CB is highly conductive (3.7 S cm−1). In addition, hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) is used as a crosslinking agent to promote the reaction between OH and COOH in the side chains of the PVB‐COOH. The dual network consisting of urethane and amide bonds exhibits the shape memory effect. Moreover, the composite is shown to be capable of shape memory‐assisted self‐healing owing to the hydrogen bonds between the dual network and COOH, such that the resistance returns to its initial value, and the healed sample can support a 1 kg weight. The resulting multi‐modal sensing system is shown to detect bio‐signals such as body movements, breathing, and pulse. In summary, the present work provides an effective strategy for the development of conductive composite electrodes for various applications that require adaptability and piezoresistive sensing ability.
