Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of flexible wearable sensing technology, and in particular to a method for preparing a flexible force-sensitive non-woven sensing fabric based on MXene and a sensor. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing demand for portable and intelligent electronic devices, flexible wearable sensors are showing great potential for development in healthcare, sports monitoring, human-computer interaction, artificial intelligence, and other fields. Thin films, hydrogels, and fabrics are currently the most common forms of flexible sensors, each with different technical characteristics. For example, thin film sensors have high sensitivity and short response times, but due to the film's airtightness, prolonged wear may cause skin discomfort. Hydrogel sensors adhere closely to the skin and have strong stretch resistance and repair capabilities, but they are prone to water loss, which can lead to a decrease in sensing performance. Fabric sensors are currently attracting widespread attention due to their inherent wearable comfort and good electrical properties. Among them, integrating conductive sensitive materials with a non-conductive fabric substrate is currently the simplest and most effective method for preparing fabric sensors.
[0003] In recent years, two-dimensional materials have attracted extensive attention in the field of flexible wearable sensors due to their ultra-thin thickness, ultra-high carrier mobility, and excellent electrical or optical properties. x -MXene, as a new type of two-dimensional material, is a metal carbide or nitride with a layered structure. It can be selectively etched into two-dimensional nanosheets by hydrofluoric acid on Ti3AlC2. Two-dimensional nanosheets have good metallic conductivity, large specific surface area, high elastic modulus and hydrophilicity, and have attracted widespread attention as a sensitive material.
[0004] Fabric sensors use fibers / yarns / fabrics as a flexible substrate. Sensing materials are incorporated into the substrate using various fabrication methods. The sensors utilize their sensitive properties to convert the measured physical quantity into an electrical signal for measurement. Compared to thin-film sensors, fabric sensors suffer from lower sensitivity and longer response times. Furthermore, most fabric sensors utilize thin-film packaging, which still presents issues such as airtightness and skin sensitivity. As the fundamental building block of fabric sensors, fiber largely determines sensor performance. Natural animal hair fibers, a common raw material in the textile industry, possess a unique structural structure, generally consisting of three parts: the medulla, the cortex, and the scales. The scales coat the outer portion of the hair shaft. The scales are attached to the hair shaft at their base and extend outward toward the tip, forming a sloping, stepped structure. The presence of the scales increases the surface area of animal hair fibers compared to chemical fibers. Therefore, the surface of animal hair fibers can accommodate a greater amount of nanomaterials as coatings. There is a clear difference between fabrics made by felting animal hair and ordinary non-woven fabrics: ordinary non-woven fabrics are made from chemical fibers through physical means, lack the scaly structure on the surface of animal hair fibers, and the sensitivity of the sensor is relatively poor. However, there is currently no mature technical method to implement the above technical concept. Summary of the Invention
[0005] In response to the shortcomings of the existing technology, the present invention provides a method for preparing a flexible force-sensitive non-woven sensing fabric based on MXene and a sensor. The force-sensitive non-woven fabric sensor is prepared using animal hair coated with MXene. The sensor has the advantages of high sensitivity and short response time, and can be used for real-time monitoring of weak pulse signals, respiratory signals and body posture. The principle is that the conductive fiber prepared by the coating method is used as the raw material for the weaving method to obtain a fabric sensor with better electrical properties and a denser structure; and the sensor can be self-packaged by the felting method, which solves the problem that fabric sensing still requires thin film packaging.

[0045] There are various methods for combining substrates with sensitive materials, the most common of which are coating and weaving.

The weaving method is to weave conductive yarns to obtain conductive fabrics with sensing properties. The weaving method includes a variety of methods. In addition to the common weaving and hand weaving methods, for animal hair fibers, the felting method is also a very important method for bonding fibers into shaped fabrics.

[0069] The present invention proposes a flexible force-sensitive non-woven sensing fabric based on MXene, which not only meets the user's needs for high sensitivity and low response time, but also meets the needs for fabric packaging comfort, and can monitor indicators of human cardiovascular health.
[0070] The embodiment of the present invention provides a method for preparing a flexible force-sensitive nonwoven sensor fabric. Figure 1 ,include:

[0077] Figure 2The schematic diagram of the preparation method of the piezoresistive sensing fabric according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown, which includes: MXene solution 1 and animal hair 2. First, the impurities on the surface of the animal hair are washed off and dried to ensure that MXene can better cover the surface of the hair. Under constant temperature conditions, the washed hair is placed in a beaker containing the prepared MXene solution and sealed to ensure that the surface of the hair can be completely covered by MXene, and then the hair is dried. Then, the dried hair is evenly spread on a non-woven work pad, and a small amount of MXene aqueous solution is sprayed on the surface to form tiny water droplets on the surface of the hair. Afterwards, the hair is sandwiched between a foam film and a non-woven fabric to compact it, and then a cylindrical tool is used to apply pressure back and forth on the foam film to promote uniform felting of the hair. Finally, the hair felt made of hair fibers is placed flat in a ventilated place to air dry. This process of making hair into felt is called wet felting, which is a type of felting method.
[0078] The advantage of using animal hair fibers is that, as a natural fiber material, they are soft, elastic, and offer excellent warmth retention, making them an excellent textile raw material. Their main component is protein, a chain-like structure formed by a series of amino acids bound together by peptide bonds. Hair is surrounded by a layer of squamous cells, with cortical cells in the center. Within these cells, large fibers are arranged along an axis, giving each hair an orderly structure. Compared to ordinary chemical fibers, hair has a larger surface area, allowing for more contact with the MXene solution. When the fabric is subjected to external force, the distance between the fibers gradually decreases, allowing more MXene to come into contact, resulting in higher sensitivity and shorter response times.
[0079] Based on the above embodiment, the concentration of the MXene solution in S1 is in the range of 3 to 8 mg / mL. Using a MXene solution in this concentration range can better bond the MXene to the animal hair fiber.
[0080] Based on the above embodiment, the temperature range of immersing the animal hair fiber in the MXene solution in S3 is: 60-80°C.
[0081] The immersion temperature should not be too high, otherwise it will accelerate the oxidation of MXene. The immersion temperature should not be too low, otherwise the scales on the surface of the animal hair fiber will not open and the MXene will not be able to penetrate under the scale layer.
[0082] Another embodiment of the present invention provides a force-sensitive fabric sensor, which includes a flexible force-sensitive non-woven sensing fabric obtained by the aforementioned method for preparing the force-sensitive sensing fabric.
[0083] The MXene-based flexible force-sensitive non-woven sensing fabric obtained by the above-mentioned preparation method uses wool fibers with a large surface area as the substrate and MXene with strong electrical conductivity as the active material. It not only achieves the goals of high sensitivity and short response time, but can also be sewn onto clothing to monitor pulse signals with medical feature points in different parts of the body. By analyzing the pulse signals, a preliminary assessment of the human body's health status can be made.
[0084] The present invention is described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0085] Example 1:
[0086] Figure 2 This method describes a method for preparing a MXene-based nonwoven sensing fabric. The fabric sensor comprises a MXene solution 1 and animal hair 2. In this example, the animal hair used is wool fiber. First, the prepared wool is placed in a beaker of acetone and sonicated for 30 seconds to remove surface impurities. Next, the sonicated wool is placed in deionized water and sonicated for 30 seconds. After sonication, the wool is repeatedly rinsed with deionized water. Finally, the cleaned wool is dried in an oven at 60-80°C to obtain wool fibers free of surface impurities.
[0087] The resulting single-layer MXene flakes were ultrasonically dissolved in deionized water to prepare a 5 mg / mL MXene solution. Washed wool was then placed in a sealed beaker containing the MXene solution and kept at 70°C for 30 minutes to ensure the wool surface was completely covered with MXene. Finally, the wool was dried in a 70°C oven. This process was repeated three times. The dried wool was then evenly spread on a non-woven work mat. A small amount of a 5 mg / mL MXene aqueous solution was sprayed onto the surface, forming tiny water droplets. The wool was then sandwiched between a foam film and a non-woven fabric to compact it. A cylindrical tool was then used to apply pressure back and forth on the foam film to promote uniform felting. Finally, the wool felt, formed from the wool fibers, was placed flat in a well-ventilated area to air dry. This process of producing wool felt is called the wet felting method.
[0088] Since the resulting fabric will subsequently come into direct contact with the object being measured, MXene will be lost during this process, necessitating fabric encapsulation. To preserve the original texture of the wool fabric, pure wool uncoated with MXene is used for encapsulation. The prepared sensor is placed on a non-woven work mat, and then a layer of pure wool is evenly placed on the sensor. The subsequent method is the same as the wet felting method described above, except that deionized water is sprayed on the pure wool during encapsulation to promote the felting of the encapsulation layer. The encapsulated fabric sensor is air-dried to obtain the final MXene-based non-woven sensing fabric.
[0089] The actual picture of the MXene-based non-woven sensing fabric in this example is as follows Figure 3 The sensor has the advantages of good flexibility and does not require any textile technology, and can also be designed into different shapes and sizes according to different needs.
[0090] Example 2:
[0091] like Figure 4 As shown, the present invention provides a method for monitoring pulse and abdominal respiratory signals from the carotid, ankle, brachial, radial, and femoral arteries, and extracting signal parameters. Soft silver fiber threads are sewn to both sides of a fabric sensor to serve as electrodes for signal extraction. The sensors are then sewn to an elastic band and socks using ordinary sewing thread to detect pulse signals at different locations. Figure 5 The pulse signals at different locations are shown in Figure 2. By comparing and calculating the simultaneously measured femoral artery and carotid artery pulse wave velocity (cfPWV), the carotid-femoral artery pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) can be obtained. Figure 6 As shown in Figure 2, by comparing and calculating the brachial artery and ankle artery measured simultaneously, the brachial-ankle pulse wave velocity (baPWV) can be obtained, as shown in Figure 2. Figure 7 As shown. Pulse wave velocity reflects changes in vascular elasticity, and because functional changes in arterial stiffness occur earlier than structural changes, pulse wave velocity can detect arterial elasticity earlier. Both parameters are important for diagnosing cardiovascular disease. cfPWV is considered the gold standard for non-invasive aortic stiffness measurement, and baPWV is a PWV measurement method that is more popular in Asia. The latter mainly reflects peripheral arterial elasticity, while the former mainly reflects large arterial elasticity. The corresponding calculation method is PWV = △L / △T, where △L represents the distance between the two measurement points; in cfPWV, △L refers to the distance between the neck and thigh; in baPWV, △L refers to the distance between the upper arm and ankle; and △T represents the delay time for the pulse wave to move from the proximal measurement point to the distal measurement point. The higher the PWV value, the greater the risk of developing brain and cardiovascular diseases.

Although the present invention has been disclosed in terms of preferred embodiments, it is not intended to limit the present invention. Any technician familiar with the present profession can make slight changes or modifications to equivalent embodiments using the technical contents disclosed above without departing from the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
