    Abstract:
    In recent years, there has been a lot of interest in developing composite hydrogels with superior mechanical and conductive properties. In this study, triple-network (TN) cellulose nanofiber hydrogels were prepared by using cellulose nanofiber as the first network, isotropic poly(acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) as the second network, and polyvinyl alcohol as the third network via a cyclic freezing-thawing process. The strong (9.43 ± 0.14 MPa tensile strength, (445.5 ± 7.0)% elongation-at-break), tough (15.12 ± 0.14 MJ/m3 toughness), and conductive (0.0297 ± 0.00021 S/cm ionic conductivity) TN cellulose nanofiber hydrogels were effectively created after being pre-stretched in an external force field, cross-linked by Fe3+ and added Li+. The produced composite TN cellulose nanofiber hydrogels were successfully used as a flexible sensor for real-time monitoring and detecting human movements, highlighting their potential for wearable electronics, medical technology, and human-machine interaction.
