Abstract
The in situ strain/stress detection of hot components in harsh environments remains a challenging task. In this study, graphene/SiCN (G-SiCN) thin-film strain gauges (TFSGs) were fabricated on alumina substrates by direct ink writing (DIW). The percolation model and the piezoresistive effect of G-SiCN composites were systematically studied. On this basis, a TFSG with high conductivity (0.1 S/cm) and high sensitivity (gauge factor (GF) 9.9) of ceramic matrix conductive composites was fabricated. The graphene/SiCN TFSG has excellent static and dynamic strain response at room temperature. Subsequently, the strain dynamic test was conducted at 400 °C, and there was no attenuation of the GF, so as to verify the high-temperature performance of the G-SiCN TFSG. Therefore, G-SiCN TFSGs provide an effective approach for the measurement of the in situ static and dynamic strain of hot components in high-temperature environments.
