We added 30 g of SBS [30 weight %; average Mw (weight-average molecular weight) ~140,000; Sigma-Aldrich, USA] into 170 g of di(propylene glycol) methyl ether acetate and stirred for 24 hours at a temperature of 60°C to obtain the SBS solution. We added 1 g of PVP [polyvinyl pyrrolidone; Mn (number-average molecular weight) = 1,300,000, Aladdin, China] into 19 g of hexyl alcohol (98%, Macklin, China) and stirred for 48 hours to obtain the PVP solution. We sonicated 3 g of liquid metal (gallium-indium alloy; Ga:In = 4:1, Hawk, HK3284, China) in l ml of PVP solution to obtain the MPC ink. The sonication process was carried out for 60 s using a probe sonicator (S450D, Branson, USA) at an amplitude of 20% (5 s on and 10 s off).
Hexyl alcohol
Manufactured by Maclin Biochemical Technology
Sourced in China
Hexyl alcohol is a colorless, straight-chain primary alcohol with the chemical formula C6H14O. It has a mild, sweet odor and is commonly used as a solvent, intermediate, and additive in various industrial and commercial applications.

First, a PVP solution was made by adding 1 g PVP (polyvinyl pyrrolidone, Aladdin, Mn = 1,300,000, China) into 19 g hexyl alcohol (98%, Macklin, China) and stirring for 24 h. Then, the liquid MPC ink was made by sonicating 3 g liquid metal (gallium–indium alloy, Ga: In = 4:1, melting point 15 °C, Hawk, HK3284, China) in l mL PVP solution for 60 s (5 s on, 5 s off) at an amplitude of 18%. A probe sonicator (S450D, Branson, USA) was employed during sonication.
About PubCompare
Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.
We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.
However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
