近年来,在可穿戴电子设备和人机交互领域出现了一种重要的非柔性应变传感器。
However, as these fieldscontinue toadvance rapidly, thereisanurgent needto improve thecomprehensive performance offlexible strainsensors including sensitivity, sensing range,response speed,anddurability. Inthisstudy,weaddress thisissuebytransferring carbon black/ graphene (CB/Gr) conductive nanocomposites ontothesurface of anEcoflex flexible substrate, which hasbeenpretreated using sandpaper toenhance adhesion.
然而,随着这些领域的持续快速发展,迫切需要提高柔性应变传感器的综合性能,包括灵敏度、传感范围、响应速度和耐用性。在这项研究中,我们通过将炭黑/石墨烯(CB/Gr)导电纳米复合材料转移到anEcoflex柔性基底的表面来解决这个问题,该基底已经用砂纸预处理以增强附着力。
The resulting flexible strainsensor exhibits high sensitivity, with a gauge factor of 51.4,while offering a wide sensing range of 100%. Notably, this sensor demonstrates high performance across various aspects, including afastresponse time (60ms) and excellent durability (up to 4000 stretching−releasing cycles). The versatility of this sensor is evident initsability to effectively monitor both small strain activities, such as speech recognition, and larger strain activities, such as elbowbending. Moreover, the sensor hasdemonstrated outstanding performance in various application scenarios, including human health andmotion condition monitoring as well as acoustic wave and vibration signals detection. Consequently, this highlights the sensor’s remarkable adaptability and substantial potential for wide-range applications in these domains.
该柔性应变传感器具有高灵敏度,augefactor为51.4,同时提供100%的宽传感器范围。值得注意的是,该传感器在各个方面都表现出高性能,包括最快响应时间(60毫秒)和出色的耐用性(高达4000次拉伸释放循环)。这种传感器的多功能性是显而易见的,可以有效地监控小应变活动,如语音识别,和大应变活动,如弯腰。此外,该传感器在各种应用场景中表现出出色的性能,包括人体健康和运动状态监测以及声波和振动信号检测。因此,这种高亮显示了传感器非凡的适应性和在这些领域广泛应用的巨大潜力。

## 2.1 论点1


Limited by high rigidity and limited strain capacity (strain ε < 5%), traditional metal or semiconductor based strain sensors are difficult to use in wearable electronic devices.1−4 Withthe rapiddevelopment ofmedical health andhuman−computer interaction, thereisanurgent needtodevelop newstrain sensors thatcanadapttothesefields.Theexcellent flexibility, ductility, andbiocompatibility offlexible strainsensors give themunique advantages inthesefields.Flexible strainsensors canbedivided intoseveral types, including resistive,5,6 capacitive,7 piezoresistive,8 andtriboelectric 9,10 sensors; among them, resistive strain sensors areregarded asan important andwidely applicable branch duetotheirabilityto effectively detect mechanical strainsignals andtheirsimple fabrication processes. However, someexisting resistive strain sensors haveshortcomings suchaslowsensitivity, 11 small sensing range,12 lowdurability, 13 andslowresponse speed,14 whichlimitthedevelopment ofresistive strainsensors inthe fieldsofhuman−computer interaction andwearable electronics. Therefore, in order to adapt to the development of thesefields,itisurgent todevelop flexible strainsensors with anexcellent comprehensive performance.
受高刚性和有限应变能力(应变ε<5%)的限制,传统的基于金属或半导体的应变传感器很难在可穿戴电子设备中使用。1-4随着医疗健康和人机交互的快速发展,迫切需要开发能够适应这些领域的新型应变传感器。柔性应变传感器优异的柔韧性、延展性和生物相容性使其在这些领域具有独特的优势。柔性应变传感器可分为几种类型,包括电阻式、5,6电容式、7压阻式、8摩擦电式、9,10传感器;其中,电阻应变传感器因其能够有效检测机械应变信号和制作工艺简单而成为一个重要且应用广泛的分支。然而,现有的电阻应变传感器存在灵敏度低、传感范围小、耐久性差、响应速度慢等缺点,限制了电阻应变传感器在人机交互和可穿戴电子领域的发展。因此,为了适应这些领域的发展,迫切需要开发综合性能优良的柔性应变传感器。
The fabrication process of flexible strain sensors primarily involves the integration of conductive micro/nano materials with flexible polymer materials. The most commonly used conductive micro/nano materials forpreparing flexible strain sensors include carbon materials (carbon black(CB),carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene (Gr),etc.),metalnanowires and nanoparticles (suchassilvernanowires, silvernanoparticles, goldnanoparticles, etc.),andcarbon/nanogen compounds (MXene).15−19 Inaddition, somenatural orsynthetic nanocomposites arealsousedtoprepare electronic skinandstrain sensors andexhibit excellent performance. Carbon black and graphene are frequently selected as materials for constructing conductive networks inflexible strainsensors duetotheiradvantageous properties,
可伸缩应变传感器的制造过程主要包括导电微/纳米材料与柔性聚合物材料的集成。用于制备柔性应变传感器的最常用导电微/纳米材料包括碳材料(炭黑(CB)、碳纳米管(CNTs)、石墨烯(Gr)等。)、金属纳米线和纳米粒子(如银纳米线、银纳米粒子、金纳米粒子等。),以及碳/纳米化合物(MXene)。15 19此外,一些天然或合成纳米复合材料也用于修复电子皮肤和应变传感器,并表现出优异的性能。20,21炭黑和石墨烯经常被选为构建导电网络的材料。
electrical conductivity, a large surface area,goodcyclicstability, andcost-effectiveness. Forinstance, Lianetal.employed 3D printing tofabricate aflexible strainsensor utilizing carbon blackastheconductive material, resulting inasensor that exhibited exceptional stability.
如:电导率、较大的表面积、良好的循环稳定性和成本效益。例如,Lianetal。采用3D打印技术制造了一种利用碳黑色传导材料的可伸缩应变传感器,从而使传感器表现出非凡的稳定性。
Zhang etal.developed a flexible conductive layerbyblending graphene withaflexible polymer tofabricate asandwich-structured strainsensor, which demonstrated exceptional stability.
张等开发了一种柔性导电层,将石墨烯与柔性聚合物共混,制成了一种三明治结构的应变传感器,具有优异的稳定性。
Notably, interfacial contact behavior between layered graphene sheets allows the graphene-based conductive network tomaintain connectivity evenundersubstantial strain.Simultaneously, smaller-sized CB particles servetofillvoidswithin theconductive layerand establish connections between conductive particles, resulting in adenser conductive network.
值得注意的是,层状石墨烯片之间的界面接触行为允许石墨烯基导电网络即使在物质应变下也能保持连接性。同时,较小尺寸的CB颗粒在导电层内形成空洞,并在导电颗粒之间建立连接,从而形成adenser导电网络。
Consequently, ajudicious blend of CBandgraphene inconstructing the sensor’s conductive network can enhance both the sensing range and sensitivity of the sensor. For instance, Liu et al.devised a sensor capable of measuring strain and pressure by applying a spray-coated dispersion of carbon black/graphene ontoa flexible paper substrate. Asstrain increased, graphene contributed tothestability ofthesensor’s conductive network, whileincreasing pressure prompted CBtofillgaps,thereby augmenting thesensor’s electrical conductivity. Nevertheless, theutilization offlexible paperasthesubstrate forthestrain sensor undoubtedly constrained itsstrain range, witha maximum straincapacity of only1.8%. 
因此,在传感器的导电网络中合理混合碳和石墨烯可以提高传感器的感应范围和灵敏度。例如,Liuetal。设计了一种传感器,能够通过在柔性纸基底上喷涂炭黑/石墨烯分散体来测量应变和压力。随着应变的增加,石墨烯有助于传感器导电网络的稳定性,而增加的压力促使碳填充间隙,从而增加传感器的导电性。然而,可降解纸作为应变传感器基底的利用无疑限制了其应变范围,最大应变能力仅为1.8%。
The material of the flexible base determines the sensing range of the sensor. The main flexible materials used in the existing flexible strainsensors include Ecoflex, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU), and styrene−ethylene−butylene−styrene (SEBS).
柔性底座的材料决定了传感器的感应范围。现有柔性应变传感器使用的主要柔性材料包括Ecoflex、聚二甲基硅氧烷(PDMS)、热塑性聚氨酯(TPU)和苯乙烯——乙烯——丁烯——苯乙烯(SEBS)。
Because of thesimple preparation process (simple mixing andmixing of glueAandglueB),goodtensile properties (tensile factorof about600%), andgoodhuman compatibility, Ecoflex iswidely usedinthefieldofflexible strainsensors. Forexample, Antonio etal.prepared ahigh-tensile strainsensor basedoncarbon nanotubes andEcoflex, whichhadastrainsensing rangeofup to300%, butitsresponse timeandrecovery timeweretoo large(600and800ms,respectively). 
由于制备工艺简单(胶水和胶水的简单混合)、良好的拉伸性能(拉伸系数约为600%)和良好的人体相容性,Ecoflex广泛用于现场可伸缩应变传感器。例如,Antonio等人制备了基于碳纳米管和ECOFLEX的高强度应变传感器,其应变传感范围高达300%,但响应时间和恢复时间过长(分别为600ms和800ms)。
Zhong et al.usedtwo nozzles toheatandcureEcoflex substrates andmultiwall carbon nanotubes/Ecoflex composites together, andthey obtained aflexible strainsensor withhighsensitivity (GF= 165.3) andlargestrainrange(0−300%), whichhadexcellent conductivity, buttheheating andcuring process ofthesensor wasdifficult tocontrol. 
钟等。使用两个喷嘴对Ecoflex基底和多壁碳纳米管/Ecoflex复合材料进行加热和固化,获得了高灵敏度(GF=165.3)和大应变范围(0-300%)的柔性应变传感器,具有优异的导电性,但传感器的加热和固化过程难以控制。


## 2.2 论点2


While enhancing thecomprehensive performance ofthe sensor, itisalsoessential toemploy asimple andcontrollable fabrication method tomeettherequirements ofmasssensor production.在提高传感器综合性能的同时,采用简单可控的制造方法来满足质量传感器生产的要求是非常必要的。Herein, thisstudypresents ahigh-performance flexible strainsensorbasedonCB/Gr/Ecoflex. Theconductive network ofthesensor isconstructed withgranular carbon blackandlamellar graphene. Ecoflex, which hasexcellent tensile properties andasimple curing process, isselected to prepare theflexible substrate ofthesensor. Byusingan inverted sandpaper moldtoformmicropits onthesurface of theEcoflex flexible substrate, thesurface areaoftheflexible substrate isincreased without affecting itsmechanical properties, which facilitates more conductive composite materials to adhere totheflexible substrate andincreases thenumber of conductive particles attracted toeachother,building aclosely connected andmoreadhesive conductive layer. Not only is the preparation process ofthesensor simple, butalsothesensor shows excellent comprehensive performance.
在此,本研究提出了一种基于CB/Gr/Ecoflex的高性能柔性应变传感器。传感器的传导网络由颗粒炭黑和层状石墨烯构成。Ecoflex具有优异的拉伸性能和简单的固化工艺,被用来制备传感器的柔性基底。通过使用倒置的砂纸模具在柔性基板表面形成微坑,柔性基板的表面积增加而不影响其机械性能,这有利于更多的导电复合材料粘附到柔性基板上,并增加相互吸引的导电颗粒的数量,形成连接紧密且粘性更强的导电层。传感器的制备工艺不仅简单,而且综合性能优异。
