A superhydrophilic thick-film pH sensor based on chemical etching, and a preparation method thereof are provided. The superhydrophilic thick-film pH sensor includes: a substrate, and a working electrode and a reference electrode that cover surfaces of the substrate. The working electrode includes a titanium sheet attached to one side of the substrate; a front part of an outer surface of the titanium sheet is covered with a titanium dioxide sensitive layer; an electrically-conductive layer is attached to the other side of the substrate; the reference electrode is located on the electrically-conductive layer, and a surface of the reference electrode is coated with a naphthol layer; and an insulating gel wraps the substrate to expose only the working electrode and the reference electrode. The working electrode is obtained by soaking the titanium sheet in an 80° C. NaOH solution, and is integrated with the reference electrode to produce the thick-film pH sensor.

Superhydrophilic thick-film pH sensor based on chemical etching, and preparation method thereof

A pH sensor with automatic water storage and replenishment, including a substrate, a working electrode, a reference electrode, a first piezoelectric micropump, a water storage device, and a second piezoelectric micropump. The working electrode, the reference electrode, the first piezoelectric micropump, the water storage device, and the second piezoelectric micropump are arranged on the substrate. The working electrode and the reference electrode are each connected to a bonding pad through an electrode lead. The second piezoelectric micropump, the water storage device, and the first piezoelectric micropump are sequentially communicated, and a liquid flows to the working electrode via an outlet of the first piezoelectric micropump.
