- Flexible electronic devices (FEDs) based on hydrogels are attracting increasing interest, but the fabrication of hydrogels for FEDs with adhesiveness and high robustness in harsh-temperature conditions and long-term use remains a challenge. Herein,glutinous-rice-inspired adhesive organohydrogels are developed by introducing amylopectin into a copolymer network through a “one-pot”crosslinking procedure in a glycerol–water mixed solvent containing potassium chloride as the conductive ingredient. The organohydrogels exhibit excellent transparency (>90%), conductivity, stretchability, tensile strength, adhesiveness, anti-freezing property, and moisture retention ability. The wearable strain sensor assembled from the organohydrogels achieves a wide working range, high sensitivity (gauge factor: 8.82), low response time, and excellent reversibility, and properly responds in harsh temperature conditions and long-time storage (90 days). The strain sensor is further integrated with a Bluetooth transmitter and receiver for fabricating wireless wearable sensors. Notably, a sandwich-structured capacitive pressure sensor with organohydrogels containing reliefs as electrodes records a new gauge factor of 9.43 kPa?1 and achieves a wide response range, low detection limit, and outstanding reversibility. Furthermore, detachable and durable batteries and all-in-one supercapacitors are also fabricated utilizing the organohydrogels as electrolytes. Overall, this work offers a strategy to fabricate adhesive organohydrogels for robust FEDs toward wearable sensing, power supply, and energy storage.
