Description

Flexible fabric/gel composite material and preparation method and application thereof
Technical Field
The application relates to the field of composite material preparation, in particular to a flexible fabric/gel composite material and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Any discussion of the prior art throughout the specification should in no way be considered as an admission that such prior art is widely known or forms part of common general knowledge in the field.
With the advent of advanced application fields, such as fields of electronic skin, flexible sensors, flexible touch screens and the like, flexible materials with ductility, high flexibility, high elasticity and conductivity are urgently required to be developed, and the wide attention of researchers at home and abroad is brought.
The fabric is used as a material with high flexibility, high elasticity and high strength, can be made into different shape types according to different requirements, and is an excellent substrate for materials such as electronic skin and the like. Currently, conductive yarns are integrated into fabrics by coating the fibers, yarns or fabrics with conductive materials, spinning composite fibers or in a woven manner. The composite conductive material on the fiber, yarn or fabric material is a simple method for manufacturing flexible intelligent materials.
However, the existing electronic skin material has a large difference from the characteristics and functions of the real biological skin. The main reasons are as follows: 1) Most of the imitation electronic skin materials are difficult to combine high flexibility and high elasticity; 2) On the premise of considering various characteristics, the sensing performance is fused, so that the portability or the wearable requirement of the material is often influenced; 3) Some dielectrics and matrix materials have low interfacial bond strength, limiting the ductility of the material and adversely deteriorating the properties after compounding. Common electronic devices such as free metal films prepared by Pashley that break (Pashley D W.A study of the deformation and fracture of single-crystal gold films of high strength inside an electron microscope[J].Proceedings of the Royal Society of London.Series A.Mathematical and Physical Sciences,1960,255(1281):218-231.). copper-aluminum alloys when stretched to 1% strain cannot be directly compounded on elastic substrates to prepare skin-like flexible elastic materials. It is an object of the present invention to overcome or ameliorate at least one of the disadvantages of the prior art, or to provide a useful alternative. Throughout the specification and claims, the words "comprise," "include," and the like are to be construed in an inclusive sense, rather than an exclusive or exhaustive sense, unless the context clearly requires otherwise; that is, it is interpreted in the light of "including, but not limited to".
