Abstract

Hydrogels are investigated broadly in flexible sensors which have been applied into wearable electronics. However, further application of hydrogels is restricted by the ambiguity of the sensing mechanisms, and the multi-functionalization of flexible sensing systems based on hydrogels in terms of cost, difficulty in integration, and device fabrication remains a challenge, obstructing the specific application scenarios. Herein, cost-effective, structure-specialized and scenario-applicable 3D printing of direct ink writing (DIW) technology fabricated two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbides (MXenes) bonded hydrogel sensor with excellent strain and temperature sensing performance is developed. Gauge factor (GF) of 5.7 (0 − 191% strain) and high temperature sensitivity (−5.27% °C−1) within wide working range (0 − 80 °C) can be achieved. In particular, the corresponding mechanisms are clarified based on finite element analysis and the first use of in situ temperature-dependent Raman technology for hydrogels, and the printed sensor can realize precise temperature indication of shape memory solar array hinge.
