A Breathable, Highly Sensitive, and Wearable Piezoresistive Sensor with a Wide Detection Range Based on Gradient Porous PU@MXene/CNT Film for Electronic Skin
Published on 2025-05-30 by Xiuli Yang, Feiran He, Huihui Qiao, Shuibo Yang, Dehua Wen, Kaige Yang, Ziyi Dang, Yin He @MDPI
Abstract: Developing flexible sensors that combine high sensitivity, a wide detection range, and comfortable wearability remains a key challenge in the development of electronic skin. This study presents a breathable, highly sensitive, and wearable piezoresistive sensor based on the preparation of hierarchical microporous PU@MXene + CNT films and single-sided electrodes using a simple and effective method. Distilled water was used as a non-solvent to induce the separation of polyurethane films (PU) with d[...]
Our summary: Developing a breathable, highly sensitive, and wearable piezoresistive sensor with a wide detection range based on gradient porous PU@MXene/CNT film for electronic skin. Conducted using computed tomography, the study revealed that the porous structures formed after phase separation of PU solutions with different mass fractions exhibited different morphologies. The flexible sensor prepared using the PU@MXene + CNT porous film exhibited excellent sensitivity in a wide detection range, demonstrating high stability and good air and moisture permeability.
