Resistance Characteristics and Particle Arrangement of Smart Paint for Surface Temperature Sensor

초록

There are limitations on the shape of models that can be measured with commonly used temperature sensors. These disadvantages are difficult to measure temperatures of the curved surface. To overcome the shortcomings, a smart paint for temperature measurement is proposed in this work. A polymer solution was prepared for viscosity of the paint and dispersion of materials. The BaTiO3 and Ag nanopaste are used for PTC characteristics and conductivity of the paint, respectively. Smart paint were analyzed the arrangement and shape of particles according to the processes and production methods. Also, the change of resistance was measured while increasing the temperature. The results show that resistance increased as the temperature increased. The performance of the manufactured smart paint was confirmed as a surface temperature sensor.
