▎ 摘 要
Various sensors have been developed to monitor the changes in physical quantities to meet the growing demand for wearable electronics. While it is still a huge challenge to design a multifunctional flexible sensor with both high strain responsivity and good breathability. In this work, through electrospinning, ultrasonication and in-situ polymerization of dopamine, we prepared a multifunctional strain sensor. We decorated polydopamine (PDA) onto the surface of reduced graphene oxide (RGO)/thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) fibers. Here, PDA containing hydrophilic groups (-OH, -NH2) was used to improve the hydrophilic breathability of the membrane and prevent the RGO falling off from TPU fibrous mat. The PDA/RGO/TPU (PRT) fibrous strain sensor exhibits excellent comprehensive performance of excellent stretchability, good durability (stretching/releasing test of 9000 cycles under 50% strain), high sensitivity (gauge factor (GF) 23.2 within 60% strain, 185 towards 60%-100% strain), and fast response time (100 m s). Specially, owing to the introduction of PDA, the water vapor volatilization rate of our PRT strain sensor (38%) is almost the same as the blank control group (39%), indicating that our fibrous sensor has excellent breathability. In order to monitor various movements of human body parts (finger, wrist, elbow, and leg bending), our sensors were attached to volunteers' joints to monitor resistance changes in real time. In addition, our PRT fibrous mat also has excellent sensitive performances towards organic gases and humidity, showing its multifunctional ability for detecting various environment stimuli.
