Description

Preparation method of cobweb-like cotton fabric-based flexible humidity sensor
Technical Field
The invention relates to a preparation method of functional cotton fabric, in particular to a preparation method of a cobweb-like cotton fabric-based flexible humidity sensor.
Background
People need to know the health condition of themselves, and small and convenient wearable electronic products which can be used for health monitoring and disease monitoring are attracting more and more attention. Wearable microenvironment humidity monitoring products have proven to be a new generation of clinical pathology detection technology, monitoring human sleep, rest, and exercise. As a wearable intelligent electronic product, the sensing capability requirement is met, and the sensing device has the characteristics of softness, ventilation, flexibility, durability and the like, and cotton fabric is one of common textiles, so that the requirement can be met. To date, methods of constructing wearable humidity sensors based on cotton fabrics or cotton fibers have relied on coating techniques. Allison et al realize the monitoring of the breathing state of a human body under the micro-environment humidity of a mask by coating poly (3, 4-ethylenedioxythiophene) chloroform on cotton fabric. The Maity et al coated polyurethane composites on carbon nanotubes on cotton fabrics to achieve detection in specific humidity ranges. While these methods have achieved flexible humidity sensors with cotton fabric as a substrate, significant challenges remain to be overcome. For example, textiles are woven from tight fibers that deform less under moisture stimulation than loose fibers that are film or paper based, resulting in lower sensitivity of the cotton-based sensor and longer response and recovery times of the textile. In addition, in order to withstand abrasion and friction caused by body movement, the conductive material needs to be adhered to the surface of the cotton fabric by adding a crosslinking agent or using a coating agent, which may cause problems such as deterioration in the wearing properties of the cotton fabric. Based on the cotton fabric micro-dissolution technology, the research designs a cotton fabric based humidity sensor of a carbon nano Guan Shimin network formed by cellulose nodes by taking a spider web structure as inspiration. Firstly, depositing a conductive carbon nano tube network layer on the surface of cotton fabric, and then treating the cotton fabric by adopting a good cellulose solvent-copper ammonia solution through micro-dissolution, so that cellulose molecules on the surface of the fabric are dissolved, macromolecules in the fabric are not affected, and the dissolved cellulose macromolecules can be adhered to the carbon nano tube network layer. And then, in the slow heat treatment (40-50 ℃) process, ammonia and water in the copper ammonia solution volatilize in a gas form, the surface layer volatilizes faster, and a small part of cellulose macromolecules dissolved in the copper ammonia solution are carried to migrate to the carbon nano tube network layer. Because the boiling point of ammonia is lower than that of water, cellulose macromolecules migrating into the carbon nano tube network layer gradually approach each other to solidify, a cellulose solidifying point is formed in the carbon nano tube network structure, and each cellulose solidifying point is bonded with a plurality of carbon nano tubes to form nodes (similar to spider web nodes) communicated with the carbon nano tube network. When stimulated by external humidity, these cellulose nodes expand rapidly due to the large specific surface area, and connectivity between the carbon nanotubes in the nodes decreases, resulting in a decrease in the resistance of the conductive cotton fabric, i.e., the humidity stimulus is converted into an electrical signal, as if the spider immediately senses the presence of a prey through the vibration of the nodes. The prepared cotton fabric humidity sensor has the advantages of wide detection range, high sensitivity, short response time, good structural firmness and the like.
