In Situ Photopolymerization of Hydrogels in Radical Covalent Organic Frameworks

, and fully recoverable large deformation (up to 1500% strain). This exceptional performance is attributed to the physical nanoconfined effect of the framework and chemical crosslinking between hydrogels and COF walls. Furthermore, the exceptional strength, toughness, and durability of the hydrogel enable its excellent applicability in wearable sensors, delivering multiangle detection with high sensitivity over prolonged operation.

Abstract

, and fully recoverable large deformation (up to 1500% strain). This exceptional performance is attributed to the physical nanoconfined effect of the framework and chemical crosslinking between hydrogels and COF walls. Furthermore, the exceptional strength, toughness, and durability of the hydrogel enable its excellent applicability in wearable sensors, delivering multiangle detection with high sensitivity over prolonged operation.
