Printed networks of 2D nanosheets have discovered a variety of functions in areas together with digital units, power storage techniques and sensors. For instance, the power to print graphene networks onto versatile substrates allows the manufacturing of high-performance pressure sensors. The community resistivity is understood to be delicate to the nanosheet dimensions which means the piezoresistance may additionally be size-dependent. On this examine, the impact of nanosheet thickness on the piezoresistive response of nanosheet networks has been investigated. To realize this, we liquid-exfoliated graphene nanosheets which have been then subjected to centrifugation-based measurement choice adopted by spray deposition onto versatile substrates. The resultant units present rising resistivity and gauge issue with rising nanosheet thickness. We analyse the resistivity versus thickness information utilizing a lately reported mannequin and develop a brand new mannequin to suit the gauge issue versus thickness information. This evaluation allowed us to distinguish between the impact of pressure on inter-nanosheet junctions and the straining of the person nanosheets inside the community. Surprisingly, our information implies the nanosheets themselves to show a unfavorable piezo response.
