Abstract

Nowadays, multifunctional, easily prepared, and highly sensitive flexible sensors have attracted extensive attention and are gradually used in various scenarios. Here, we report the design of the Ti2C3Tx/polyurethane composites prepared by a facile gas–liquid interface self-assembly. The obtained flexible sensor has a wide detection range (∼900%), a low-stress detection limit (<1%), a high sensitivity (GF = 1.3, strain from 0 to 100%), and a fast response time (<140 ms). The multifunctional stress sensor can be applied to not only wearable motion monitoring and detection of various signals but also the detection of underwater human motion, as well as different motion states and swimming frequencies of toy fish in water, demonstrating its great prospects in a variety of applications, such as human movement monitoring and marine biological detection and research.
