A Chewing Gum Residue‐Based Gel with Superior Mechanical Properties and Self‐Healability for Flexible Wearable Sensor

Abstract

Front Cover: Chewing gum residue is hard to decompose and easily causes pollution, making it a good candidate for recycling. At present, the resources of chewing gum residues are very rich. Based on this, the study in article number 2200234 by Junping Zheng, Ruofei Hu, and co-workers, enables the recycling and reuse of chewing gum residue similar to a transmission gate. The chewing gum residue is recycled and fabricated as a strain sensor to effectively monitor health status.
