Anti-fatigue adhesive non-swelling hydrogel constructed by covalent topological structure and micro-nano gel for stretchable bioelectronics by Gongwei Tian, Ming Zhu, Jianhui Chen, Cuiyuan Liang, Qinyi Zhao, Dan Yang, Yan Liu, Shuanglong Tang, Jianping Huang, Zhiyuan Liu, Weihong Lu, Meifang Zhu, Wei Yan, Dianpeng Qi

“…Hydrogel adhesives are rapidly emerging as a promising candidate toward flexible bioelectronics due to their adhesive characteristics and tissue-like mechanical properties. However, current hydrogel adhesives manifest weak anti-fatigue adhesion and an inability to ensure long-term integration of bioelectrodes on wet and dynamic tissue surfaces because they are constrained by their high swelling ratio and exclusive formation of covalent bonds at the tissue interface and its own weak cohesion. …”
