Abstract
An ink blend consisting of a polymer, a weakly cross-linking agent and a nanomaterial deposited to form a thin polymer-nanomaterial composite film with unique mechanical and electrical properties suitable for high performance strain sensing applications.
Claims17
A printed nanocomposite sensor comprising a polymer, a cross-linking agent that forms temporal crosslinks between two or more polymer chains, and a conductive nanomaterial combined to form a nanocomposite material, wherein the nanocomposite material is printed in the form of a film or a sheet on at least a part of a surface to form the printed nanocomposite sensor.
