The invention belongs to the technical field of
pressure detection, and particularly relates to a flexible
pressure sensor and a preparation method thereof. The flexible
pressure sensor comprises a flexible substrate, a patterned
electrode in
close contact with the flexible substrate, a
signal transmission
electrode electrically connected with the patterned
electrode, a pressure-sensitive layer covering the patterned electrode, and a protective layer covering the pressure-sensitive layer or the
signal transmission electrode. The preparation method comprises the following steps: S1, selecting a flexible film or a
textile fabric as a flexible substrate; S2, manufacturing a patterned electrode layer; S3, preparing a pressure-sensitive layer; S4, preparing a first
protection layer; S5, manufacturing a
signal transmission electrode; and S6, preparing a second
protection layer. The patterned electrode, the pressure-sensitive layer and the protective layer are all directly processed layer by layer through printing or
etching, so that the processes of fitting
processing, packaging and the like are omitted, the deformation of a
film material can be effectively avoided, and the sensor is light, thin, small and exquisite in size, low in
power consumption, suitable for application requirements in various occasions and high in universality.
