The wearable human-computer interaction equipment improves comfort, convenience, safety, and health monitoring, attracting more attention. The highly stretchable sensor based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes/Ecoflex nanocomposites has potential applications in human motion monitoring, medical rehabilitation, health monitoring, and soft robots.
Wearable human-computer interaction equipment is a common technology, which can improve the comfort, convenience, and safety of the human body, and also can monitor human health. The flexible and wearable tensile sensor can be conveniently installed on clothes or directly connected to the body. This provides a convenient, timely, and portable solution for the detection of human motion. Therefore, wearable electronic equipment is gaining more attention. In this paper, a highly stretchable, flexible, and sensitive strain sensor which is based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes/Ecoflex nanocomposites is reported. A monofilament tensile sensor obtains good linearity (10.77%), low hysteresis (1.63%), good stability (6000 cycles under 100% strain), and ultra-high strain range (epsilon = 1300%). This ultra-stretchable sensor has potential applications in human motion monitoring, medical rehabilitation, health monitoring, human-computer interaction, and soft robots.
