Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the field of sensor material preparation technology, specifically relating to a method for preparing a leather-wood based electronic sensor floor. Background Technology

[0002] The fabrication of resistive pressure sensing floors often involves coating a conductive material onto a substrate. This coating method requires additional curing agents and organic solvents, is complex, and has poor environmental friendliness. Furthermore, uneven distribution of the conductive material hinders the construction of conductive pathways within the sensor, affecting the sensitivity, response range, and stability of the smart electronic floor. Therefore, achieving large-scale fabrication of low-cost, high-sensitivity, and durable electronic floors through the selection of sensing layer materials and structural design remains a significant challenge.

[0003] Gelatin, a collagen protein widely found in animal skin, tendons, and bones, is a product of partial hydrolysis of collagen. Its molecular chains contain numerous active functional groups, exhibiting advantages such as water solubility and reversible gelation, making it an excellent biomaterial for constructing hydrogel adhesives. The conductive active layer in electronic flooring needs to adhere tightly to the substrate surface to function effectively. Furthermore, the conductive active layer of electronic flooring needs to withstand damage under complex stress environments, thus self-healing properties are crucial. Hydrogel adhesives prepared with gelatin as a matrix interact with the surface of the adhered substrate through covalent bonds, hydrophobic association, ionic bonds, electrostatics, and chelation, providing necessary protection for the conductive active layer of resistive pressure sensors. Simultaneously, the dynamic covalent and non-covalent bonds within the gelatin-based hydrogel adhesive contribute to its excellent self-healing properties. Summary of the Invention

Inject the sensor adhesive layer precursor solution into the silicone pad. Clamp the leather and the wood with clips and heat to polymerize. After the reaction is complete, remove the silicone pad to obtain the leather-wood based electronic sensing floor.
