High-performance piezoresistive sensor based on indium tin oxide nanoparticles/cellulose nanofiber composite for human activity monitoring
The rapid growth of wearable technologies demands the development of flexible, high-performance, and environmentally sustainable pressure sensors. However, the fabrication of environmentally friendly and excellent performance pressure sensors using simple and cost-effective methods remains a great challenge. Herein, we develop a novel piezoresistive sensor based on indium tin oxide nanoparticles (ITO NPs)/cellulose nanofibers (CNF) composite, where the sustainability advantage originates from the biodegradable CNF substrate. The sensor is fabricated by sandwiching conductive ITO NPs/CNF composite film between a polyimide encapsulation layer and a paper-based interdigitated electrode. It demonstrates a wide sensing range (0–125 kPa), high sensitivity (1715.35 kPa−1), rapid response time (37.82 ms), and exceptional cyclic stability (over 5000 cycles). Moreover, the sensor demonstrates the capability to detect both large and subtle human movements, as well as spatial pressure distribution, showing great potential for applications in wearable electronics.
期刊介绍:
Composites Communications (Compos. Commun.) is a peer-reviewed journal publishing short communications and letters on the latest advances in composites science and technology. With a rapid review and publication process, its goal is to disseminate new knowledge promptly within the composites community. The journal welcomes manuscripts presenting creative concepts and new findings in design, state-of-the-art approaches in processing, synthesis, characterization, and mechanics modeling. In addition to traditional fiber-/particulate-reinforced engineering composites, it encourages submissions on composites with exceptional physical, mechanical, and fracture properties, as well as those with unique functions and significant application potential. This includes biomimetic and bio-inspired composites for biomedical applications, functional nano-composites for thermal management and energy applications, and composites designed for extreme service environments.
