Paper-based devices are particular of interest due to their unique properties including low-cost, flexibility, light weight and environmental-friendliness. However, till now the number of developed paper-based electronic devices has been limited. Here, a paper-based piezoresistive pressure sensor has been developed. In the fabrication process, graphite piezoresistors were fabricated on a paper substrate by an inkjet-printed water mask method and assembled onto a polystyrene base. The sensitivity of the developed pressure sensor was found to be 20.0 μV/V/mmHg in a range of pressures from 0 to 65.26 mmHg. A comparison with a commercial silicon-based sensor reveals a great potential for paper-based sensors to be alternatives to silicon-based sensors.

纸基设备因其独特的特性（包括低成本，柔性，轻巧和环保）而特别受关注。但是，到目前为止，已开发的纸基电子设备的数量受到限制。在此，已经开发了基于纸的压阻压力传感器。在制造过程中，石墨压阻器通过喷墨印刷的水掩模法制造在纸质基板上，然后组装到聚苯乙烯基体上。发现在从0到65.26 mmHg的压力范围内，开发的压力传感器的灵敏度为20.0μV/ V / mmHg。与商用硅基传感器的比较表明，纸基传感器有很大潜力替代硅基传感器。
