This paper reviews the research progress on ionogels in flexible pressure sensors. Ionogels comprise solid carrier networks and ionic liquids (ILs) dispersed therein and have good non-volatility, high conductivity, thermal stability, a wide electrochemical window, and mechanical properties. These characteristics give ionogels broad application prospects in wearable electronic devices, intelligent robots, and healthcare. The article first introduces the classification of ionogels, including the classification based on ILs and solid carrier networks. Then, the preparation methods and processing technologies of ionogels, such as the direct mixing method, in situ polymerization/gel method, and solvent exchange method, are discussed. Subsequently, the article expounds in detail on the properties and modification methods of ionogels, including toughness, conductivity, hydrophobicity, self-healing, and adhesiveness. Finally, the article focuses on the application of ionogels in flexible pressure sensors and points out the challenges faced in future research. The language of this mini-review is academic but not overly technical, making it accessible to even researchers new to the field and establishing an overall impression of research. We believe this mini-review serves as a solid introductory resource for a niche topic, with large and clear references for further research.
本文综述了离子凝胶在柔性压力传感器中的研究进展。离子凝胶由固体载体网络和分散在其中的离子液体(ILs)组成,具有良好的不挥发性、高导电性、热稳定性、宽电化学窗口和机械性能。这些特性使离子凝胶在可穿戴电子设备、智能机器人和医疗保健领域具有广阔的应用前景。文章首先介绍了离子凝胶的分类,包括基于离子液体和固体载体网络的分类。然后,讨论了离子凝胶的制备方法和加工技术,如直接混合法、原位聚合/凝胶法和溶剂交换法。随后,文章详细阐述了离子凝胶的性能和改性方法,包括韧性、导电性、疏水性、自愈合性和粘附性。最后,文章重点介绍了离子凝胶在柔性压力传感器中的应用,并指出了未来研究面临的挑战。这篇综述文章的语言具有学术性,但不过于专业,即使是该领域的新手研究人员也能理解,并能建立起对该研究的整体印象。我们相信这篇综述文章为一个小众主题提供了坚实的入门资源,并为进一步研究提供了大量清晰的参考文献。
