Introduction. Currently, artificial polymers that pollute the environment are used in bend sensors. Nanocellulose (NC) is a biodegradable and flexible material, but it has a low elongation ability, which limits its use for human motion detection. Creating NC-based composites is a way to solve this problem.
Problem Statement. Synthesizing bend sensors based on biodegradable material (bionanocomposite of nanocellulose (NC) and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)) to be used in sensors for analyzing human muscle activity is an urgent problem.
Purpose. To determine the effect of the sensor substrate material on the operating parameters of bend sensors.
Materials and Methods. The synthesis methods have been as follows: acid hydrolysis of organosolvent cellulose to obtain NC, vacuum casting to obtain NC-PVC nanocomposite films, and high-frequency magnetron sputtering to produce strain-sensitive films. The following research methods have been employed: optical spectrometry, mechanical elongation and tensile testing, souil burial degradation test, and strain measurement.
Results. NC-PVC composites have been synthesized and bend sensors have been created on their basis. The main electrical parameters of the obtained bend sensors are as follows: the strain sensitivity coefficient is 7.52, the reversibility ranges within 9—23%, the time drift varies within 0.17–0.5%/min. The biodegradability of the composite is 21—70% mass loss in 4.5 months. The effect of the sensor substrate material on the functional properties of these sensors has been investigated. It has been found that the addition of PVA to NC improves the optical and mechanical properties of the composites.
Conclusions. The optimal composition of the composite can be considered a mix of NC-PVC in a ratio of 1 : 1. The developed bend sensors can be used to monitor human muscle activity for medicine, sports, and rehabilitation
