The ultraviolet light wavelength was 405nm, the layer thickness was 20 μm, the ultraviolet light intensity was 5mW/cm 2, and the exposure time was 3s.

The product is placed under the condition of room temperature (the temperature is 22-27 ℃ and the humidity is 40-65%) to absorb water for 24 hours, and the acryloylmorpholine/glycerol organic hydrogel is obtained.
Index performance verification is performed on the photo-curing slurries prepared in examples 1-4 and comparative examples 1-2, as shown in table 1. As can be seen from Table 1, in several examples, the resin viscosity was less than 60 mPas, which is suitable for use in photo-curing 3D printing.
TABLE 1 photo-curing syrup of acryloylmorpholine/glycerol/polyethylene glycol diacrylate
As shown in figure 1, the pure acryloylmorpholine solidified product is placed under the condition of room temperature, firstly absorbs water and then loses water, and has poor water retention property, and after glycerin is added, the acryloylmorpholine/glycerin and the acryloylmorpholine/glycerin/polyethylene glycol diacrylate solidified product have no obvious water loss phenomenon, thus having good water absorption/water retention property.
For the cured product of acryloylmorpholine/glycerol, the cured product of acryloylmorpholine/glycerol cannot be fully recovered after stretching due to lack of enough chemical crosslinking points (as shown in fig. 2 a), and the introduction of polyethylene glycol diacrylate increases chemical crosslinking (covalent crosslinking points) of acryloylmorpholine. Sufficient covalent crosslinking points ensure that the crosslinked network of the acryloylmorpholine/glycerol/polyethylene glycol diacrylate cured article is not broken under stretching, so that the acryloylmorpholine/glycerol/polyethylene glycol diacrylate cured article can rebound completely (see fig. 2 b). Thus, the residual strain of the acryloylmorpholine/glycerol cured article was gradually increased and the maximum stress was significantly reduced for the cyclic loading-unloading force test of the acryloylmorpholine/glycerol cured article, indicating poor resilience (as in fig. 3 a), and the subsequent stress-strain curve area was substantially unchanged for the acryloylmorpholine/glycerol/polyethylene glycol diacrylate cured article after two cycles of the cyclic loading-unloading force test, indicating excellent resilience and fatigue resistance for the acryloylmorpholine/glycerol/polyethylene glycol diacrylate cured article (as in fig. 3 b).
Since the acryloylmorpholine/glycerol/polyethylene glycol diacrylate cured product has excellent resilience, the cured product can be used as a strain sensor. The resistance of the acryloylmorpholine/glycerol/polyethylene glycol diacrylate cured product changed regularly under different strains and responded repeatedly, indicating potential sensing performance (as shown in fig. 4).
Finally, the 3D printed acryloylmorpholine/glycerol/polyethylene glycol diacrylate cured product has structural design, and the ring with the hole structure can be prepared to be directly worn on the finger. The bending motion of the finger caused the regular change in resistance of the acryloylmorpholine/glycerol/polyethylene glycol diacrylate cured article and repeated responses, indicating that the 3D printed acryloylmorpholine/glycerol/polyethylene glycol diacrylate cured article could be used as a potential wearable organic hydrogel strain sensor (see fig. 5).
