| description | In this study, chitin fibers (CFs) were combined with molybdenum sulfide (MoS<sub>2</sub>) to develop high-performance sensors, and chitin carbon materials were innovatively introduced into the application of gas sensing. MoS<sub>2</sub>/CFs composites were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method. The surface properties of the composites were greatly improved, and the fire resistance effect was remarkable compared with that of the chitin monomer. In the gas-sensitive performance test, the overall performance of the MoS<sub>2</sub>/CFs composite was more than three times better than that of the MoS<sub>2</sub> monomer and showed excellent long-term stability, with less than 10% performance degradation in three months. Extending to the field of strain sensing, MoS<sub>2</sub>/CFs composites can realize real-time signal conversion in tensile and motion performance tests, which can help inspectors make analytical judgments in response to the analysis results. The extensive application of sensing materials in more fields is expected to be further developed. Based on the recycling of waste chitin textile materials, this paper expands the potential applications of chitin materials in the fields of gas monitoring, biomedicine, behavioral discrimination and intelligent monitoring. |
