Assessing Wear Characteristics of Sprayable, Diacetylene-Containing Sensor Formulations.

ABSTRACT: This work extends recent developments in diacetylene-based, sprayable sensors by identification and assessment of formulations which facilitate their use for wearable sensing. Diacetylene-based spray-on sensors have the potential to be a widely deployed sensing technology, as they require no power and can be applied as thin coatings onto surfaces to provide a colorimetric response to target exposure. In responding to radiation, liquid-phase targets, or gas-phase targets specifically determined by the formulation of the sprayable sensor used, this technology is amenable to wearable sensors for measuring exposure to different environmental risks. Here, we provide the means to improve wear resistance, reduce false-positive signals due to wetting, and enhance color fastness for coatings of spr
