Abstract High strength, toughness, and conductivity are among the most sought‐after properties of flexible electronics. However, existing engineering materials find it difficult to achieve both excellent mechanical high conductivity. To address this challenge, study proposes a facile yet versatile strategy for preparing super‐tough conductive organo‐hydrogels via freeze‐casting assisted solution substitution (FASS). This FASS enables formation in one step with exquisite hierarchical...
Tough natural materials such as nacre, bone, and silk exhibit multiscale hierarchical structures where distinct toughening mechanisms occur at each level of the hierarchy, ranging from molecular uncoiling to microscale fibrillar sliding macroscale crack deflection. An open question is whether how design motifs can be translated development next-generation biomimetic hydrogels. To address this challenge, we fabricate strong tough hydrogel with architected using a freeze-casting-assisted...
Fabrication of composite hydrogels can effectively enhance the mechanical and functional properties conventional hydrogels. While ceramic reinforcement is common in many hard biological tissues, ceramic-reinforced lack a similar natural prototype for bioinspiration.

Porous ceramics are favored in a multitude of applications, such as filters, catalyst supports, and tissue engineering scaffolds. However, conventional fabrication techniques find it particularly challenging to preserve sufficient mechanical strength highly porous ceramics. Although unidirectional freeze casting can fabricate with high vertically, the other directions is inadequate due lack lateral structural control.
