About

Xingrong Zeng is a materials scientist and engineer whose research sits at the dynamic intersection of flexible electronics, smart materials, and wearable sensing technologies. His work focuses primarily on the design and fabrication of advanced piezoresistive pressure and strain sensors, with particular emphasis on integrating multifunctional properties — including self-healing, superhydrophobicity, and biocompatibility — into high-performance flexible devices for human motion detection and health monitoring. Zeng's most impactful contribution, an MXene@polydimethylsiloxane pressure sensor inspired by human skin, has garnered 181 citations since 2022, reflecting significant community interest in biomimetic sensing architectures. His development of a three-dimensional silver nanowire/thiolated graphene foam-based self-healable strain sensor (113 citations) demonstrated that room-temperature autonomous repair could be achieved without sacrificing mechanical or electrical performance — a key challenge in the field. Across his portfolio, Zeng has also pioneered eco-friendly sensor platforms using biodegradable poly(lactic acid) and chitosan-based aerogels, addressing growing concerns around electronic waste. His work on light-responsive superhydrophobic films further extends his influence into soft robotics and biomimetic actuator design. With a body of work accumulating nearly 570 citations, Zeng represents an emerging voice shaping next-generation wearable and sustainable electronic materials.
