Abstract
The layers of various materials are discussed. They include nanomaterials containing carbon nanotubes with tensoresistive properties. The investigated layers are divided into two groups: without (group I) and with carbon nanotubes (group II). From materials of group I, the most suitable for the manufacture of strain sensors for medical purposes is an elastomer with microchannels, filled with a conductive liquid. Such a strain sensor can detect small bends of parts of the human body with an error of 8%. In group II, carbon nanotubes, located between layers of natural rubber or between flexible layers of polydimethylsiloxane, showed acceptable values of strain sensitivity and maximum deformation of ~40 and ~500%, respectively. Based on layers (thickness ~0.5–1.5 μm) of biocompatible composite nanomaterials in bovine serum albumin or microcrystalline cellulose and carbon nanotubes (concentration ≤2 wt%), prototypes of deformation sensors (tensoresistors ) showed high positive characteristics. In particular, bipolar behavior, strain sensitivity ~160, small hysteresis (≤3%) after training cycles (deformation/deformation) more than 25 times, the possibility of applying an aqueous dispersion of nanomaterials to the human skin by the 3-D printer. Further improvement (in particular, an increase in the linear deformation region and a decrease in deformation, a decrease in hysteresis) of the parameters of composite nanomaterials in a matrix of biological materials and a filler made of carbon nanotubes will allow the use of deformation sensors , both non-invasive and invasive medical applications.
