Description

High-strength zirconium hydroxide nano composite hydrogel, preparation thereof and application thereof as electric driver
Technical Field
The invention relates to hydrogel and preparation and application thereof, in particular to high-strength zirconium hydroxide nano composite hydrogel and preparation and application thereof as an electric driver, belonging to the field of composite drivers.
Background
The hydrogel driver is a soft driving device capable of generating volume phase change under external stimulation, and has wide application prospects in the aspects of microfluidic valves, drug delivery and artificial muscles. Among these hydrogel actuators, the electrical stimulation responsive hydrogel actuator has great advantages due to its low voltage and simple facility. The application of the hydrogel driver for electric stimulation response mainly focuses on small robots, cell scaffolds, micro mechanical devices and the like. For example: eddington et al prepared a hydrogel electrically controlled valve with a high swelling ratio that could effectively regulate the flow of water within the channel under the control of electrical stimulation. Recently, Morales et al designed a hydrogel walkable device with anions and cations that could move directionally in response to electrical signals in an electrolyte solution to simulate the motion behavior of a robot. [ D.Morales, E.Palleau, M.D.Dickey, O.D.Velev, Electro-activated hydrogel Walkers with product responsive leaves, Soft matter 10(9) (2014) 1337-.
High strength hydrogel actuators, which are generally required to withstand long, repeated deformations, are widely used in artificial muscles, smart valves and drug delivery systems. However, the poor mechanical properties and low young's modulus limit the application of conventional hydrogels in actuators. At present, the methods for solving the problem of poor mechanical strength of the hydrogel are as follows: introducing a novel cross-linking agent such as graphene oxide or block copolymer microspheres into a network structure to serve as cross-linking points, and preparing a hydrogel driving device with high mechanical strength and rapid electrical stimulation response capability; the other mode is as follows: the interaction between anionic and cationic monomers with opposite charges is used to construct a hydrogel actuator that responds dual to pH and ionic strength. However, the above-mentioned techniques have problems: existing electrically driven hydrogel actuators fail to meet the strength criteria of artificial muscles (-300 KPa). Therefore, the development of high strength hydrogel electrically driven devices remains a challenge.
One technical problem to be solved at present is: it is needed to develop a high-strength nano-composite hydrogel driver, a preparation method thereof and application of the driver of hydrogel under electric field stimulation, and the mechanical property of the electric field stimulation hydrogel can reach the strength range of human articular cartilage. Due to the small size effect of the nano material, the nano particles are easy to agglomerate, so that the dispersibility in a gel system is poor, and when the nano particles are used as an additive or a filler, the agglomerated nano particles provide a certain mechanical support, but the mechanical property of the material is weakened, and the application requirement of the material in the biomedical field such as the aspect of human tissue scaffolds cannot be met. In the literature about searching the range that the mechanical property of the prepared hydrogel driver is improved and the strength of the hydrogel driver is close to that of human articular cartilage, the technical scheme that the high-strength zirconium hydroxide nano-composite hydrogel is prepared by adopting an in-situ free radical polymerization method and the hydrogel is applied as an electric driver is not reported.
