Abstract
Disclosed are sensor materials and sensors prepared from thermoplastic polymers filled with 2D nanoparticles. The thermoplastic polymers filled with 2D nanoparticles are prepared by a method in which a thermoplastic polymer is melt-blended with at least one layered material under shear sufficient to exfoliate the layered material in the thermoplastic polymer until 2D nanoparticles are formed, to provide covalently linked 2D nanoparticle-filled thermoplastic polymers. Such filled thermoplastic polymers have utility for preparing various types of sensors which are useful in a variety of practical applications and devices.
