Highly Transparent, Stretchable, and Conducting Ionoelastomers Based on Poly(ionic liquid)s

The rapid development of soft electronics has revitalized the research of conducting elastomers. However, the design of conducting elastomers having high stretchability and good transparency still remains a considerable challenge. In this study, we develop a highly transparent, stretchable, and conducting ionoelastomer based on a poly(ionic liquid) in which cations are fixed to a stretchable elastomeric network and counter anions are mobile. …
