Strain Sensing Behaviour of PPy-Coated XLA Fibers

Article Preview

Abstract:

This study developed an electrically conductive XLA fiber, which can sense strain variation under extension. The conductive XLA fiber was prepared by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) after plasma surface treatment. The strain sensing behavior of the PPy-coated XLA fibers was studied under tensile loading. It is found that the sensitivity of XLA fiber bases is over 145, and its working range is from 10% to 110%, showing it excellent in strain sensing behavior.
