Abstract

Conductive hydrogel fibers are ideal for wearable underwater sensing due to their weavability, conformal deformation adaptability, and ionic conductivity. However, conventional hydrogel fibers swell severely in water, causing mechanical deterioration, disrupted conductive pathways and signal instability, which limits their underwater applications. Herein, dual-network polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/sodiu…
