Forming electro-mechanical transparent (polymer -Ni)‎ sensor

الملخص EN

Polymers (Silicon elastomer) are used lately as a conductive material in electronic application in addition to be transparent, to light.

In this paper we prepared polymer films about (1mm) thick and less which contains Ni-metal powder cured in magnetic vacuum furnaces at temperature 120°C in order to arrange or to be oriented the particles of the Ni- powder through the polymer in such a way to be conductive for electric currents.

We found that these films are sensitive to any loads on the surface (force per unit area).

Using light loads on a unit electric cell from these films, we get an electric transparent sensor that could be used in sensing applications.
