Electronics Material with response to moisture and electrical changes?

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on the creation of a moisture sensor, with participants seeking clarification on the specific type of device being developed. The term "hygrometer" is introduced, highlighting various types of moisture sensors, including capacitive, resistive, thermal, gravimetric, and optical sensors. The conversation emphasizes the importance of specificity in inquiries about sensor design, noting that most electrical devices fail when exposed to water. Participants encourage a more detailed explanation of the intended application and design of the moisture sensor to facilitate better guidance and suggestions.

TL;DR
I want to know what is the material that has a moisture and electrical properties response ?
I want to know what is the material that has a moisture and electrical properties response ?

Do I have an idea to create an electrical device that is related to moisture using some materials that are responsive to moisture and electrical properties

Please be more specific. Are you trying to make a moisture sensor? Almost all electrical devices stop working if you dunk them in water. We can't guess what you mean.
