Development of a Sustainable Flexible Humidity Sensor Based on <i>Tenebrio molitor</i> Larvae Biomass-Derived Chitosan

Development of a Sustainable Flexible Humidity Sensor Based on <i>Tenebrio molitor</i> Larvae Biomass-Derived Chitosan

This study presents the fabrication of a sustainable flexible humidity sensor utilizing chitosan derived from mealworm biomass as the primary sensing material. The chitosan-based humidity sensor was fabricated by casting chitosan and polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) films with interdigitated copper electrode...
