Mater.2014,26, 3451-3458.) was disclosed with a pressure sensitive test experiment with a widest detection range of 10kPa and a highest detection sensitivity of 4.88kPa -1 (see D in FIG. 7), both of these data for the sensor of comparative example 3 are much lower thanThe maximum detection sensitivity (298.4 kPa) of the widest detection range (40 kPa) of the sensor of the present invention -1 ) (see A in FIG. 7), while the polydimethylsiloxane has no air permeability, the fibroin film adopted by the invention has good air permeability, and can be completely degradable and meets the requirements of green chemistry.
Therefore, the sensor based on the MXene/silk fibroin composite material provided by the invention has better air permeability, and the double-layer structure can sufficiently reduce the loss of force in transmission and improve the sensitivity of the pressure sensor.
