Abstract
Flexible pressure sensors have received significant attention for applications in wearable devices and human health monitoring in healthcare. Nevertheless, the preparation of pressure sensors with a wide operating range and high sensitivity remains a huge challenge. Herein, a piezoresistive sensor with a porous microstructure is prepared by using a sandpaper and salt dual-template method. Carbon black and carbon nanotubes are used as conductive fillers and the pressure sensor shows a high sensitivity (58.33 kPa-1) and extremely fast response and recovery times (3 and 10 ms, respectively). Furthermore, this CNT/PDMS/CB sensor shows a high detection limit of 400 kPa and excellent cycling stability of over 20 000 cycles. This high-performance pressure sensor is promising for many applications such as wearable electronics and health monitoring.
