This invention discloses a room-temperature self-healing
electromagnetic shielding hydrogel composite material and its preparation method, belonging to the field of
composite material technology. The
composite material uses
polyvinyl alcohol containing
aryl indole groups and
conductive materials as raw materials, and
ferric chloride and
borax as crosslinking agents. Based on the steric hindrance effect introduced by the large-volume groups and the multiple dynamic bonds constructed in the
system, this invention enables the
composite material to exhibit highly efficient self-healing ability, high
mechanical strength, and excellent
electromagnetic interference shielding performance at
room temperature. Through repeated
wetting and
drying treatments, the
electromagnetic shielding efficiency of the hydrogel can be reversibly switched between on / off states, making it suitable for applications in
flexible electronics and intelligent shielding, thus solving the problem that traditional hydrogel materials struggle to simultaneously achieve self-healing performance,
mechanical strength, and
electromagnetic shielding effectiveness.
