Novel silicone-based capacitive pressure sensors with high sensitivity for biomedical applications
Keyword(s):
Abstract In this work, an investigation of the pressure-sensing properties of a silicone rubber was conducted. Small amounts of carbon black were added to the silicone during fabrication and the effect on the sensitivity was explored. A full investigation of the mechanical and electrical properties of each composition shows that adding carbon black to the material greatly increases its sensitivity to pressure. This increase in sensitivity appears to be related to improvements in the material’s permittivity, which increases with carbon loading.
