Abstract

The invention relates to a highly stretchable and high-sensitivity 3D printed graphene-based flexible sensor and a preparation method thereof. The graphene-based flexible sensor has a two-stage sensing structure, wherein the first-stage sensing structure is filled with conductive fillers and elastic The secondary sensing structure is formed by coating graphene on the surface of the primary sensing structure, and finally the sensing material is packaged to form a flexible sensor after the electrodes are drawn out. In the present invention, the controllable design of the macroscopic shape of the first-level sensing structure is realized through the use of 3D printing technology, and the highly stretchable characteristics of the sensor are realized by the construction of the macro-grid filling structure, and the two-level sensing structure is extremely large. The sensitivity of the sensor in a wide strain range is improved. The method of the invention is simple to operate, and the prepared graphene-based flexible sensor has both high sensitivity and high stretchability, and has the potential to be widely used in fields such as smart medical care, health monitoring, and human-computer interaction.
