Conductive ultrathin bio-electrodes composed of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) fibrous networks and poly(styrene-b-butadiene-b-styrene) (SBS) ultrathin films showed higher WVTR (4464-6198 g m-2 (2h)-1) compared to conventional bio-electrodes. Furthermore, they showed excellent resistance to bending deformation and artificial sweat and successfully measured the surface electromyogram signals of the subject's forearm flexor muscles.
