MOF‐Derived Transition Metal Carbide@Electroactive Polypyrrole Nanohybrid‐Based High‐Performance and Stretchable Multimodal Patch for Perspiration Analysis

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A high‐performance stretchable multimodal sweat‐sensing patch is developed by integrating a MOF‐derived molybdenum carbide nano‐octahedron/polypyrrole (MoCx‐Oct@PPy) nanohybrid onto SEBS‐transferred laser‐engraved graphene electrodes. The nanohybrid‐based patch incorporates four sensors for the monitoring of glucose, vitamin C, Na+, and pH in sweat ...
