Recent Research on MXene-based Flexible Wearable Sensors in the Fields of Sports and Health

Abstract

 With the rapid development of smart wearable devices, flexible strain sensors have shown broad application prospects for their excellent flexibility, comfort and integration. Focusing on the latest research on MXene-based flexible wearable sensors, this paper systematically sorts out relevant content. Firstly, the classification and sensing mechanism of flexible strain sensors are summarized, including capacitive, piezoelectric, triboelectric and resistive strain sensors. Secondly, this paper introduces two-dimensional MXene materials and their preparation methods. In addition, the latest research on MXene-based flexible wearable sensors in the fields of sports and health is elaborated. Despite remarkable progress in theoretical and experimental research, flexible strain sensors still encounter challenges in terms of sensitivity, durability, and mass production. Thus, future research should lay emphasis on developing new materials, exploring advanced manufacturing technologies, and realizing multi-functional integration and intelligence of sensors.
