A Stretchable Conductive Material with High Fatigue Resistance for Strain Sensors.

Intrinsically stretchable conductive materials based on elastic substrates and conductive components play important roles in biomedical applications, such as exercise rehabilitation monitoring and disease prediction. A persistent challenge is to combine high fatigue resistance with excellent mechanical properties in stretchable conductive materials. Herein, we present a stretchable conductive material with both good fatigue resistance and high tensile properties (∼3170%) based on poly(acrylic acid)-phytic acid-trehalose-polypyrrole (denoted as PPTP).
