초록

We experimentally investigated the mechanical and electrical characteristics of the poly vinyl alcohol(PVA) hydrogel which have attracted special interest as a mechanochemical material, and the applicability of the hydrogel membrane to a sensor for measuring large strain. As a result, the PVA hydrogel could be regarded as a Hookean elastic material and was treated as an electric resistance which was proportional to the tensile strain within a linearly elastic range.
