| Description | In this research, a flexible inkjet-printed temperature sensor with in-house silver nanoparticles ink is presented and compared with the sensor printed with commercial silver nanoparticles ink. These sensors have an average width of 0.5 ± 0.04 mm in the latter and 0.5 ± 0.03 mm in the former. These serpentine-structure sensors were printed on polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate by using a Fujifilm Dimatix 2850 printer. The corresponding results indicating resistance have been recorded in the range of 30–100 °C to evaluate the sensor performance. The result of the studies showed that there was a linear relationship between the resistance and temperature for both ink types. The printed sensors developed using the in-house ink presented higher sensitivity, 0.1086 Ω/°C, compared to the commercial ink, which was 0.0543 Ω/°C. Therefore, the flexible inkjet-printed temperature sensor with the in-house silver nanoparticles ink is recommended for the large-scale productions and implementations. |
