Abstract

The invention discloses a conductive powder-liquid metal droplet and a preparation method and application thereof. The method comprises the steps of putting a liquid metal on a container paved with conductive powder in a form of a liquid droplet; and vibrating the container, rolling the liquid metal droplet in the container and covering the surface of the liquid metal droplet with conductive powder to form the conductive powder-liquid metal droplet. The conductive powder (graphene) and the liquid metal (a gallium-indium-tin alloy and gallium-indium eutectic) have high conductivity and thermal conductivity. The high-conductivity graphene powder coats the liquid metal droplet, so that the liquid metal is prevented from being in direct contact with a metal substrate and the behaviors, such as population and corrosion, of damaging the metal substrate are prevented. Furthermore, the conductive powder-liquid metal droplet has certain mechanical flexibility, the performance of the liquid metal droplet as a flexible conductor is not limited, the conductivity of the liquid metal droplet is not affected, and meanwhile, the original performance of the metal substrate is kept.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of flexible electronic circuits, in particular to a conductive powder-liquid metal droplet and its preparation method and application. Background technique [0002] Soft units in natural living systems perform biological functions, such as muscles controlling body movements through the skin and the sense of touch. Mimicking these general biological functions, AI systems accept various mechanical deformations by engineering materials and other strategies. Liquid metals (gallium indium tin alloy (GaInSn), gallium indium eutectic (EGaIn)) are a promising material that can meet the requirements of flexible conductors. This liquid metal has several special properties: high surface tension, high electrical conductivity, low toxicity, and low vapor pressure. These properties make liquid metals ideal materials for reconfigurable and stretchable applications in electronics and interconnection, soft sensors, etc. [0003] In...
