Ionogels are ideal candidate materials for flexible sensors, but their stretchability and fatigue resistance are limited. Herein, highly stretchable, fatigue-resistant, electrically conductive, and temperature-tolerant ionogels are investigated and further applied in fabricating high-performance flexible sensors. The ionogels consist of a poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) network and a commonly used room-temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) named 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium dicyanamide ([EMIm][DCA]). Dually acrylated Pluronic F127 (F127DA) was utilized to cross-link the PAA network, and [EMIm][DCA] was physically confined in the PAA network. Because of their special cross-linking structure, the PAA ionogels are highly stretchable (>850%), tough, and fatigue-resistant, and they are also conductive, transparent, and temperature-tolerant because of the existence of [EMIm][DCA]. On the basis of their integrated performances, the PAA ionogels were further utilized to fabricate strain sensors and pressure sensors. The ionogel-based strain sensors have high sensitivity, low response time (200 ms), wide strain-sensing range (0-750%), excellent durability (>1400 cycles), and good temperature tolerance and can be applied to detect various human motions. The pressure sensors also have a high response speed (256 ms) and excellent sensitivity (GF = 0.73 kPa-1), which offers an opportunity to detect force generated by finger touching and water droplets.
