Abstract
With the demand for healthy life and the great advancement of flexible electronics, flexible sensors are playing an irreplaceably important role in healthcare monitoring, wearable devices, clinic treatment, and so on. In particular, the design and application of polyimide (PI)-based sensors are emerging swiftly. However, the tremendous potential of PI in sensors is not deeply understood. This review focuses on recent studies in advanced applications of PI in flexible sensors, including PI nanofibers prepared by electrospinning as flexible substrates, PI aerogels as friction layers in triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG), PI films as sensitive layers based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) in relative humidity (RH) sensors, photosensitive PI (PSPI) as sacrificial layers, and more. The simple laser-induced graphene (LIG) technique is also introduced in the application of PI graphitization to graphene. Finally, the prospect of PIs in the field of electronics is proposed in the review.

Abstract
Colorless polyimides (CPIs) are a key substrate material for flexible organic light-emitting diode (OLED) displays and have attracted worldwide attention. Here, in this paper, the dispersion and interfacial interaction of aromatic polyamide (PA) in CPI (synthesized from 4,4'-(hexafluoroisopropylidene) diphthalic anhydride (6FDA) and 2,2'-bis(trifluoromethyl)benzidine (TFMB)) were significantly improved by in situ polymerization, and colorless transparent macromolecular polyimide composites (CPI-PAx) were successfully prepared by PA and CPI. By adjusting the ratio of PA to CPI, a high-performance engineering plastic with excellent film-forming properties was obtained. Molecular simulations confirmed the uniform distribution of PA in CPI and its interaction in polymers. In CPI-PAx, the CPI was locked by the PA chain, and numerous molecular chains were mutually entangled to form a hydrogen-bond network structure. Due to the strong interaction between the chains imparted by the hydrogen bonds of the PA, they do not slide under external forces and heating. In addition, the additive PA has excellent dimensional stability, thermal, and mechanical properties, and CPI has outstanding optical properties, so the synthesized CPI-PAx combines the comprehensive properties of PA and CPI. The CPI-PAx has excellent thermal and mechanical properties, with a thermal decomposition temperature of 499 °C, a glass transition temperature of 385 °C, a coefficient of thermal expansion of 0.8 ppm K-1, a tensile strength of 50.9 MPa, and an elastic modulus of 3.9 GPa. Particularly, CPI-PAx has a 90% transmittance in the visible region. These data prove that the strategy of combining PA and CPI by in situ polymerization is an effective method to circumvent the bottleneck of CPI in the current flexible window application, and this design strategy is universal.
