Abstract Pressure-sensitive paint (PSP) is applied to the areodynamics measurement. PSP is optical sensor based on the luminescence of dye probe molecules quenching by oxygen gas. Many PSPs are composed of probe dye molecules, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (pyrene, pyrene derivative etc.), transition metal complexes (ruthenium(II), osumium(II), iridium(III) etc.), and metalloporphyrins (platinum (II), palladium(II), etc.) immobilized in oxygen permeable polymer (silicone, polystyrene, fluorinated polymer, cellulose derivative, etc.) film. Dye probe molecules adsorbed layer based PSPs such as pyrene derivative and porphyrins directly adsorbed onto anodic oxidised aluminium plat substrate also developed. In this section the properties of various oxygen permeable polymer for matrix and various dye probes for PSP are described.
