Background
With the rapid development of 5G and the Internet of things, the world of everything interconnection is coming, and more sensors gradually enter the lives of people. In the aspect of monitoring objects by actual sensors, gas detection, especially oxygen detection, becomes more important, because people cannot leave oxygen, which is closely related to the health of people, and when the oxygen concentration in the environment is too high or too low, the oxygen sensor can cause harm to human bodies, so that the oxygen sensor plays an important role in monitoring whether the oxygen concentration around the environment where the human bodies are located is normal or not in real time, and a higher-quality living environment is provided for people. In addition, the oxygen sensor in the wearable electronic device, the electronic skin, and other devices needs to be attached to an object with an irregular surface topography for use, and may be deformed such as bent and stretched during use, so that the oxygen sensor is also required to have good flexibility and stretchability. In addition, in a daily application, since the sensor moves along with a human body or a robot, the sensor is likely to be detached or damaged. Therefore, it also needs a certain self-adhesion and self-healing property so that it can be better applied to practical situations.
Conventional flexible gas sensors are typically fabricated by integrating non-flexible sensing elements, such as MoS, on flexible substrates, such as Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), poly (ethylene adipate terephthalate) (Ecoflex), and Polyimide (PI)2、CeO2And the self stretchability of the sensor is limited by the flexible substrate, and meanwhile, the separation of the sensitive element and the substrate may occur, so that the stability of the device is reduced, and the biocompatibility and the self-adhesion of the flexible substrate materials are generally poor, so that the flexible substrate materials are not suitable for being directly attached to human skin, and even if the flexible substrate materials can be attached to the human skin, the self-adhesion is not high enough. For example, Chinese patent CN110183688 discloses a flexible application of conductive hydrogel based on nano-cellulose-carbon nanotube-polyacrylamideThe preparation method of the variable sensor utilizes the nanocellulose-carbon nanotube/polyacrylamide to prepare the conductive hydrogel, and the conductive hydrogel can be used for preparing the flexible oxygen sensor without a substrate, but the sensitivity is not high because the gel cannot adsorb oxygen in the environment, and the self-adhesion performance and the biocompatibility are still not good enough.

The present invention will be further described with reference to specific embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the examples in any way. The starting reagents employed in the examples of the present invention are, unless otherwise specified, those that are conventionally purchased.
Example 1
A preparation method of a double-network organogel comprises the following steps:
s1, mixing acrylamide 3, chitosan 1, N' -methylene bisacrylamide 4, a photoinitiator 29592, acetic acid 5 and deionized water in proportion, magnetically stirring at the rotating speed of 900rpm until the mixture is uniform to obtain a mixed solution, and then carrying out photoinitiation for 1 hour under the irradiation of ultraviolet light to carry out cross-linking polymerization to form polyacrylamide network gel; wherein the mass ratio of acrylamide, N' -methylene bisacrylamide, photoinitiator, chitosan and acetic acid is 1800: 1: 58: 400: 58;
s2, soaking the polyacrylamide gel in sodium chloride 8 for 30min, and forming a chitosan network 7 by using the dispersed chitosan chains through salting out effect to obtain polyacrylamide/chitosan double-network gel;
s3, soaking the polyacrylamide/chitosan double-network gel in propylene glycol 9 for 7h to obtain the polyacrylamide-chitosan double-network-based organic gel, wherein the preparation process is shown in the figure 1.
As shown in figure 2, because the polyacrylamide 6, the chitosan network 7 and the propylene glycol 9 in the gel contain functional groups, the functional groups can be respectively matched with water molecules 13 and O in the external environment 211, hydrogen bonds 10 are formed, so that the sensitivity of the gel to oxygen detection can be improved.
Example 2
The difference between the embodiment and the embodiment 1 is that the mass ratio of acrylamide, N' -methylene-bisacrylamide, photoinitiator, chitosan and acetic acid is replaced by 1500: 1: 40: 300: 40.
example 3
The difference between the present example and example 1 is that the mass ratio of acrylamide, N' -methylenebisacrylamide, photoinitiator, chitosan, and acetic acid was replaced with 2000: 2: 70: 500: 70.
comparative examples 1 to 3
Comparative example 1 was prepared substantially in the same manner as in example 1, except that step S3 was not performed.
Comparative example 2 is prepared substantially in the same manner as in example 1, except that chitosan powder, acetic acid, and step S2 are not added.
Comparative example 3 was prepared in substantially the same manner as in example 1, except that chitosan was replaced with sodium alginate.
Performance testing
1. Flexibility and stretchability of gels
The double network organogel prepared in example 1 was subjected to bending, twisting, and stretching experiments, and the gel was bent to 180 ° (results are shown in fig. 4 a) and twisted to 720 ° (results are shown in fig. 4 b) by hand, and after the external force was removed, the gel was rapidly restored to its original shape. The results show that the maximum gel elongation can be up to 1400% of the original length (as shown in fig. 4c, d), indicating that the double-network organogel has excellent flexibility and stretchability. The bending, twisting and stretching experiments of the double-network organogel prepared in the examples 2-3 show that the double-network organogel also has excellent flexibility and stretchability.
2. Self-adhesive properties
The double-network organic gel prepared in example 1 is adhered to different substrates including metal, plastic and glass, and still can bear the weight of 80g, 40g and 100g respectively (as shown in fig. 5 a), and the adhesion strength of the organic gel to the metal, the plastic and the glass can be calculated to be 20 kPa, 9.1 kPa and 10kPa respectively. This excellent adhesion is in addition to-CONH on polyacrylamide2In addition, it is derived from a large amount of-NH groups on the chitosan chains2. When chitosan was not present (comparative example 2) or replaced by another polymer network (comparative example 3), the adhesion properties decreased. The adhesion strength of the gel prepared in comparative example 2 to metal, plastic and glass is 1.5, 3.5 and 2.2kPa respectively, and the adhesion strength of the gel prepared in comparative example 3 to metal, plastic and glass is 0.7, 0.6 and 1.4kPa respectively, which is far lower than that of the polyacrylamide-chitosan double-network organic gel prepared in example 1 (as shown in figure 5 b). The polyacrylamide-chitosan double-network organogel has larger peel strength to various substrates (as shown in figure 5 c) through 180-degree peeling experiments, and the peel strength of the double-network organogel on glass and aluminum sheets is similar and is about 35N/m. This indicates that the double network organogel has good self-adhesive properties.
3. Self-repairing property
The LED bulb and the double-network organogel prepared in example 1 were combined to form a closed loop, and a power supply of 3V was applied to the closed loop, which indicated that the double-network organogel had good conductivity (as shown in fig. 6 a). The double network organogel was cut with scissors, the closed current loop was opened and the LED bulb was immediately extinguished (as shown in fig. 6 b). And then the double-network organic gel cut into two sections is butted, the self-repairing of the double-network organic gel is realized, the conductivity of the double-network organic gel is restored again, and the LED bulb is lighted (as shown in figure 6 c). The resistance of the fractured double-network organogel after being butted and after being re-separated is tested by electrical equipment, and it can be seen that the resistance of the butted double-network organogel can be rapidly restored to the original resistance value (as shown in fig. 6 d). These all indicate that the electrical properties thereof have good self-repairing properties. The butted and repaired double-network organogel is heated for 10min at 100 ℃ in a sealed state, and the double-network organogel can realize more than 250% of stretching (as shown in fig. 6e and f), so that the good mechanical property and the good self-repairing property are shown.
4. Gas-sensitive characteristics
The organogel prepared in example 1 was exposed sequentially to pure N2And a specific concentration of O2Connecting electrodes at both ends of the organogel to an electrical test device in a gas atmosphere, and monitoring the relative current change (Δ I/I) through the organogel0% and. DELTA.I is the change in current, I0Is initially in pure N2Current under atmosphere) to evaluate the gas sensing characteristics of the sensor. The ventilator is at "O" in FIG. 7 for each test cycle2When the valve is opened, the O begins to be introduced2Gas up to "O2Off, end, O2When closed, nitrogen was started.
As shown in fig. 7a, b, for the cyclic repeated exposure of organogel as oxygen sensor to 1% O2The dynamic response curve of the gas and the response magnitude of the cycle test. When the organogel is exposed to O2The current increases immediately when the gas is in contact with the gas, at which point O2Gas and H2The O molecules participate in the electrochemical reaction at the cathode to generate faradic current, causing an increase in the current flowing through the organogel. Organogels to 1% O in three cycles2The response of (a) is substantially constant, indicating good repeatability.
As shown in FIG. 7c, organogels as oxygen sensors for 1% O2The response time and the recovery time of the catalyst are respectively 39.9s and 63.7s, which are shorter than those based on ZnO and SnO2The oxygen sensor made of the traditional metal oxide material shows that the oxygen sensor has higher response speed and recovery speed.
As shown in FIG. 7d, organogels as oxygen sensors for different concentrations of O2Have different responses, and the smaller the concentration the smaller the response.
As shown in FIG. 7e, organogel as oxygen sensor pair O2The gas concentration response presents a positive correlation, the detection range is from 0 percent to 100 percent, and the gas concentration response has the characteristic of full concentration range detection. And the gas sensor has good linearity under the concentration of 0-20%. The sensitivity of the gas sensor is 0.2%/ppm at a concentration of 0% to 20%, the theoretical detection limit is as low as 5.7ppm, and the sensitivity is very high.
As shown in FIG. 7f, the performance of each aspect of the oxygen sensor prepared from the polyacrylamide-chitosan double-network organogel is far better than that of most of the oxygen sensors based on metal oxide semiconductors reported at present.
As shown in fig. 8a and b, the polyacrylamide-chitosan double-network organogel prepared in example 1 has higher response and sensitivity as a gas sensor than the polyacrylamide-chitosan double-network hydrogel prepared in comparative example 1, the polyacrylamide single-network hydrogel prepared in comparative example 2 and the polyacrylamide-calcium alginate prepared in comparative example 3. Under the same conditions, the polyacrylamide-chitosan double-network hydrogel prepared in comparative example 1 was aligned to 1% O2The response was 1968%, much higher than 564% for comparative example 2 and 498% for comparative example 3, suggesting that the introduction of chitosan as a second polymer network into the gel brought a large amount of-NH to the gel2and-OH, the response sensitivity of the sensor is greatly improved; also for 1% O2Comparative example 1, the double-network organogel prepared in example 1 is at 1% O2The response of the sensor is improved from 1968% to 3200% by 1.6 times, and the result shows that after the sensor is soaked in propylene glycol, the double-network hydrogel is successfully modified into double-network organogel, and the propylene glycol is introduced into the gel, so that a large amount of-OH is increased, and the sensitivity of the sensor is further improved.
5. Influence of different states of the gel on gas sensitivity
As shown in FIG. 9a, the organic hydrogel still responded to oxygen when its tensile strain was 86%, and the magnitude of the response was from 2065% for the same concentration of oxygenIs lifted to 5139%; as shown in FIGS. 9b, c, d, the sensor is aligned to 1% concentration of O under 180 degree bend2Response of 3136%, in the post-self-repaired state, the sensor is paired with 1% concentration of O2The response of (c) was 3240%, which is substantially consistent with the response in the original state, i.e., unbent compared to 3200% without fracture. This indicates that the organogel-based gas sensor can still function properly in a bent state or after it has broken and healed naturally again; even under the stretching deformation state, the device can work as usual through the calibration of an external device. The characteristics make it very suitable for the flexible electronic device field, help to expand its application range.
The oxygen sensor comprises electrodes for participating in an electrochemical reaction and for measuring a parameter reflecting the rate of the electrochemical reaction, the parameter being selected to be the current flowing through the gel at a certain bias voltage, the electrodes being selected to be a metal of good electrical conductivity, such as silver. The oxygen sensor may further include detection means electrically connected to the two electrodes, respectively, for measuring a current flowing through the oxygen sensor through the electrodes. When in an oxygen atmosphere, oxygen can participate in electrochemical reactions at the electrodes of the sensor, thereby generating a faraday current. The higher the concentration of the oxygen is, the more the oxygen participating in the electrochemical reaction in the same time is, and the larger the generated Faraday current is; conversely, the lower the oxygen concentration, the lower the faraday current generated. By observing the change in current flowing through the sensor, the change in oxygen concentration in the environment can be known. The schematic diagram of the oxygen sensor prepared by the double-network organic hydrogel is shown in figure 3, and when the gas O to be detected in the external environment2The molecules 11 get electrons 12 at the metal cathode 14 of the oxygen sensor, and undergo a reduction reaction in the presence of water molecules 13: o is2+2H2O+4e-→4OH-. The metal anode is a silver electrode, and the silver is oxidized at the metal anode 15: ag-e-→Ag+,Ag++Cl-≈ AgCl.
