The key role of 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane sol–gel precursor in the development of wearable sensors for health monitoring
Source abstract
Abstract
Textiles represent an attractive class of materials for realizing wearable biosensors. Electronic textiles, or smart textiles, describe the convergence of electronics and textiles into fabrics, which are able to sense, compute, communicate, and actuate. As many different electronic systems can be connected to any clothing, a wearable system becomes more versatile, and the user can change its look depending on environmental changes and individual preference. In this review, we want to explain how it is possible to develop the sensing component of a wearable sensor by sol-gel method based on the use of opportune organofunctional trialkoxysilane precursors, such as 3-glycidoxypropyltrimethoxysilane. Results show that the halochromic dyestuffs are completely entrapped in the sol-gel coatings, both through chemical and physical interactions with the textile fabric. Moreover, a certain washing fastness was observed. Sensor films show excellent reproducibility, reversibility, and short response times, with dynamic ranges from pH 4.4-6.0 (Methyl Red), pH 6.0-7.0 (Nitrazine Yellow), and pH 4.5-8.3 (Litmus), respectively.
