Abstract in brief

  • A new type of hydrogel combining liquid metal and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has been developed, showcasing features like stretchability, biocompatibility, and quick self-healing.
  • This hydrogel can be remotely manipulated using a magnetic field, allowing it to autonomously repair damaged areas, such as broken wires.
  • The hydrogel also acts as a sensitive strain sensor for tracking body movements and provides improved electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, making it a promising component for smart wearable devices.
