Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of intelligent leather products and flexible wearable technologies, and specifically relates to a leather-based flexible sensor based on in-situ generation of nanosilver from polyphenol compounds, as well as a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Leather, a natural polymer material derived from animal hides, has long been used in the manufacture of wearable products. Its unique multi-level structure gives leather excellent mechanical strength and flexibility, making it ideally suited for the substrate material requirements of flexible sensors. In recent years, leather has been gradually incorporated into the design and development of flexible sensors. In addition to possessing sensing properties, other practical properties for leather-based flexible sensors should also be considered. For example, leather-based flexible sensors are typically attached directly to the surface of the skin. Oils and other organic pollutants secreted by the skin in daily life can easily contaminate the sensor, affecting not only its sensing performance but also the growth of bacteria, posing a threat to human health. Therefore, imparting good antibacterial properties to leather-based flexible sensors can fully protect them from bacterial interference.

[0003] As an inorganic antimicrobial agent, silver nanoparticles possess excellent antimicrobial properties, with minimum inhibitory concentrations reaching 10 μg / mL against bacteria such as Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. After binding to the cell wall or membrane of microorganisms, silver nanoparticles can directly enter the microorganisms and rapidly bind to the sulfhydryl groups of oxygen-metabolizing enzymes, inactivating the enzymes and suffocating the microorganisms by blocking respiratory metabolism. Consequently, they can kill most microorganisms that come into contact with them. Furthermore, silver nanoparticles' surface effects, quantum size effects, and quantum tunneling effects give them exceptional activity and permeability, further enhancing their antimicrobial properties. Furthermore, silver nanoparticles possess excellent electrical conductivity. Therefore, their high antimicrobial and electrical conductivity properties can be exploited to fabricate antimicrobial leather-based flexible sensors. However, due to their high surface energy, direct incorporation of silver nanoparticles into leather can cause particle aggregation and phase separation from the substrate, leading to silver nanoparticle leakage and instability.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0023] The present invention provides a method for preparing a leather-based flexible sensor based on in-situ generation of nanosilver from polyphenol compounds. The method uses leather as a flexible substrate and polyphenol compounds as a reducing agent to prepare the leather-based flexible sensor by in-situ generation of nanosilver inside collagen fibers.

[0024] (1) The preparation principle of the leather-based flexible sensor based on the in situ generation of silver nanoparticles by polyphenol compounds is as follows: First, the polyphenol compound and leather are mixed evenly under weak alkaline conditions. The polyphenol compound molecules are adsorbed on the surface of the collagen fibers due to the action of phenolic hydroxyl groups. The polyphenols on the outside are oxidized into quinone substances and self-polymerized to form a polyphenol compound coating layer. Subsequently, the leather modified with polyphenol compounds is immersed in a silver source solution. As the solution penetrates into the leather, silver ions are gradually adsorbed by the phenolic hydroxyl groups on the benzene rings of the polyphenol compounds and reduced to zero-valent elemental silver, which further aggregates and grows to form silver nanoparticles. At the same time, the phenolic hydroxyl groups on the polyphenol compounds are oxidized into quinones, and the lone pair electrons and π electrons in their structure can stabilize the silver nanoparticles. During the entire reaction process, the polyphenol compound acts as a reducing agent and stabilizer. The electrochemical potential difference between the polyphenol compound and the silver ions drives the reaction, thereby realizing the green preparation of silver nanoparticles and obtaining a leather-based flexible sensor based on the in situ generation of silver nanoparticles by polyphenol compounds.

[0025] (2) The performance enhancement principle of leather-based flexible sensors based on the in-situ generation of silver nanoparticles by polyphenol compounds is as follows: ① Conductive and sensing performance: Silver nanoparticles, as one of the metal materials with the highest electrical conductivity, are formed in situ inside the collagen fibers and contact each other, forming an electronic conductive path, which gives the leather-based flexible sensor good conductive properties. During the deformation process, the disordered migration of highly conductive silver nanoparticles causes the conductive network structure to change, thereby converting the input mechanical signal into an electrical signal output, so that the leather-based flexible sensor exhibits excellent perception of external force stimulation. ② Antibacterial performance: The cell membrane is the main site of action of polyphenol compounds for antibacterial effect; silver nanoparticles interact with bacterial proteins, deoxyribonucleic acid, lipids and enzymes; in addition, the stabilizing effect of polyphenol compounds on silver nanoparticles increases the contact area and action sites between silver nanoparticles and bacteria, thereby enhancing the killing effect of leather-based flexible sensors on bacteria.

[0026] The leather-based flexible sensor, fabricated using the aforementioned method and utilizing in situ silver nanoparticles generated from polyphenolic compounds, exhibits excellent electrical conductivity, sensing, and antibacterial properties, with a maximum conductivity of 18.90 S / m. When bent at a 180° angle, the relative resistance of the leather-based flexible sensor changes by 82.68%. Furthermore, the leather-based flexible sensor exhibits an antibacterial rate of 99.99% against both Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli. This preparation method is not only simple to operate but also enables in situ formation of silver nanoparticles within the leather, resulting in a leather-based flexible sensor with stable overall performance.
