Abstract
Green electronics is a trending and cost-effective method with potential application in health care monitoring and wearable electronics. We present a piezo resistive wearable pressure sensor using Polyaniline (PANI) incorporated with cellulose paper (CP) substrate. The ultralow-cost sensor is prepared by coating the sensing material on the paper using simple dip coating method. On stacking multiple PANI-CPs one upon another, the obtained flexible sensor demonstrates excellent sensitivity of 2.23 kPa−1, fast response of 70 ms and wide working range from 2 to 90 kPa. Furthermore, the sensor manifest excellent flexibility, outstanding stability up to 800 loading–unloading cycles and biodegradability. In addition, the pressure sensor can also be used for detecting rapid finger tapping. Apart from the other pressure sensors, this work mainly focusses on fabricating wearable piezo resistive sensors with low cost, facile fabricating process and shows potential for future applications in flexible wearable sensors.
