Sustainable curcumin-based smart tough fluorescent hydrogels for anti-counterfeiting applications

There is currently great interest in developing an environment-friendly,low-cost,and scalable approach for producing stimuli-responsive fluorescent hydrogels(FHs)with excellent mechanical property,rewritable fluo-rescence,and dual anti-counterfeiting capabilities.Herein,by applying natural,environment-friendly,and sus-tainable curcumin as a responsive agent,tough pH-responsive FHs(pH-FHs)are fabricated via a facile preparation strategy.These materials have outstanding mechanical performances:ultimate stress of 180 kPa,an ultimate strain of~2500%,and good anti-fatigue performances against compression.These pH-FHs are able to sense ammonia and formaldehyde gas,resulting in both a color change and fluorescence for dual anti-counterfeiting functionality.This sensing information is stored individually by the pH-FHs and could be externally removed using formaldehyde gas to achieve a rewritable system.Our study provides valuable insights that are expected to facilitate the development of smart FHs for information encryption and anti-counterfeiting applications.
