Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of materials of functional polymer networks, and in particular to a magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel and a preparation method thereof, which are used for wearable strain sensors and effective waste heat collection and conversion. Background Art

[0002] Most biological tissues are rich in water, and synthetic hydrogels can perfectly mimic their structure. Therefore, hydrogels have become ideal materials for implantable devices, wound dressings, and flexible electronics. Clearly, adhesion is crucial for the harmonious integration of hydrogels with tissues and skin. However, asymmetric adhesion is necessary in practical applications to avoid the problems caused by the isotropy and self-adhesion of hydrogels. Janus hydrogels with two surfaces of different properties can achieve this goal. Although there are many existing methods for preparing Janus hydrogels, such as medium-guided diffusion, molecular one-sided diffusion, and temperature-induced modification, the adhesion surfaces obtained by these diffusion-based methods are uncontrolled on a time scale, and most of them only achieve a single functionality—asymmetric adhesion—which limits the new application window of Janus hydrogels. Therefore, the preparation of Janus hydrogels with dual functionality is of great practical significance.

[0003] Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) of ferroferric oxide are not only used as carriers for drug delivery systems or multifunctional nanomaterials, but also exhibit excellent responsiveness to magnetic fields and good thermal conductivity. Furthermore, polydopamine (PDA), an emerging bioinspired material, possesses multifunctional properties such as photothermal effects and strong adhesion. The ease of preparing PDA on nearly any material also makes it a versatile coating. The combination of PDA and magnetic nanoparticles of ferroferric oxide provides a new material that can be introduced as a functional filler into hydrogel precursor solutions.

[0004] By inducing external fields, such as electric, optical, and magnetic fields, and doping hydrogel precursor solutions with responsive fillers, it is possible to construct stable Janus structures within hydrogels and impart multifunctionality. However, strategies for simultaneously achieving strong adhesion and high thermal conductivity on one side of Janus-like hydrogels have yet to be reported. Summary of the Invention

Based on the unilateral induction of a magnetic field on polydopamine-modified ferroferric oxide magnetic nanoparticles, Janus hydrogels with different adhesive properties are constructed on both sides of the hydrogel. The prepared Janus hydrogel exhibits excellent mechanical properties, universal adhesion, and effective ability to collect and convert waste heat from the human body.

[0014] The crosslinking agent is a mixture of N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide and calcium sulfate dihydrate, and the mass ratio is N,N′-methylenebisacrylamide: calcium sulfate dihydrate = 11 to 20:1;

The excellent thermal conductivity of the ferroferric oxide magnetic nanoparticles enables the Janus hydrogel to quickly establish an effective temperature difference between the human skin surface and the air, exhibiting a large Seebeck coefficient.

[0081] Janus adhesive hydrogels were prepared in the presence and absence of a magnetic field. The presence of a magnetic field is crucial for the uniform formation of the hydrogel's adhesive surface. Figure 1 As shown, under the condition of no magnetic field induction (Comparative Example 1), the magnetic nanoparticles are irregularly distributed in the hydrogel matrix after thermal polymerization, forming an uneven adhesion surface; while under the condition of magnetic field induction (Example 1), the magnetic nanoparticles are evenly distributed at the bottom of the hydrogel matrix after thermal polymerization, forming a flat adhesion surface.

[0082] The cross section of the magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel prepared in Example 1 was observed using a field emission scanning electron microscope (SU8010, Hitachi, Japan) at an accelerating voltage of 10 kV. Figure 2 As shown, it can be seen that the tough matrix region of the magnetic field-induced Janus viscous hydrogel prepared in Example 1 has a dense pore structure, while the viscous matrix region has a loose pore structure.

[0083] The magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel prepared in Example 1 was characterized by using a Thermo Fisher Nicolet 6700 infrared spectrometer (FT IR) at a wave number of 400 to 4000 cm 1 The infrared spectra of the tough side and the adhesive side of the Janus viscoelastic hydrogel induced by the magnetic field are obtained respectively. The results are as follows Figure 3 As shown in the figure, it can be seen that the Janus hydrogel with different properties on both sides was successfully prepared in Example 1, wherein the adhesion surface curve is 1065.96 cm -1 The peak at is attributed to the stretching vibration of the benzene ring in polydopamine.

[0084] The magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel prepared in Example 1 was subjected to tensile tests at 25°C and 56% relative humidity. The strip-shaped magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel (width 15 mm, thickness 3 mm) was loaded into an electronic universal testing machine (E43.104, MTS, USA) with an initial gauge length of 10 mm and stretched at 50 mm min. -1 After stretching at a speed of , the tensile strength and elongation at break of the hydrogel were tested, and the average value was obtained by multiple measurements. Comparative Example 2 and Comparative Example 3 were used as controls, and the results were as follows Figure 4 As shown in the figure, it can be seen from the results that compared with polyacrylamide hydrogel and double-network polyacrylamide / calcium alginate hydrogel, the magnetic field induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel of the present invention can show better tensile strength and also has a larger elongation at break.

[0085] The adhesive surface of the magnetic field-induced Janus adhesive hydrogel prepared in Example 1 was placed in contact with the surfaces of different substrates, and slight pressure was applied to allow the gel to adhere fully to the substrate. The results were as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel prepared in Example 1 can directly adhere to different substrate surfaces, including plastic, glass, iron sheet, PMMA, pigskin and rubber, indicating that the Janus viscoelastic hydrogel has a wide range of adhesion and can be applied to different substrate surfaces.

[0086] The magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel prepared in Example 1 was assembled with a platinum wire into a wearable strain sensor. When a voltage of 0.5 V was applied, the current change was recorded by a CHI760D electrochemical workstation. The sensor can fit closely to the human body and effectively detect subtle human movements. The GF value reaches 0.842 in the 0-100% strain range and 0.646 in the 100-600% strain range. Figure 6 shown.

[0087] The magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel and polyacrylamide / calcium alginate hydrogel prepared in Example 1 were prepared into cylindrical samples of 15 mm × φ10 mm. The samples were placed under temperature differences of 5 K, 7 K, 10 K, and 13 K. The open circuit voltages of the two hydrogels at different temperature differences were measured using a CHI760D electrochemical workstation to obtain the Seebeck coefficients of the two hydrogels. The results are shown in FIG. Figure 7 As shown, it can be seen that the Seebeck coefficient of the magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic polyacrylamide calcium alginate hydrogel is 3.01m / K; the Seebeck coefficient of the polyacrylamide calcium alginate hydrogel is 8.09mV / K, indicating that the polydopamine-modified ferroferric oxide magnetic nanoparticles present in the adhesive surface of the magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel prepared in Example 1 have good thermal conductivity and adhesion, and have a significant positive effect on the rapid construction of the temperature difference between the two ends of the hydrogel.

[0088] In summary, the prepared magnetic field-induced Janus viscoelastic hydrogel has good adhesion and is an excellent material for preparing wearable strain sensors; and the polydopamine-modified ferroferric oxide nanoparticles in the adhesion layer have good thermal conductivity, which has a significant effect on constructing the temperature difference between the two ends of the hydrogel. Therefore, combined with the Soret effect, when the hot end temperature is less than 70°C, the hydrogel material of the present invention can also be used to realize waste heat collection and conversion, using the Seebeck effect to collect low-quality thermal energy and convert it into electrical energy.
