Lithium chloride (LiCl)-loaded 3D cubic mesoporous silica KIT-6 (LiCl-KIT-6) composites were prepared as resistance-type humidity-sensitive materials. The structures of the resultant composites were characterized by X-ray diffraction, N2adsorption–desorption, and transmission electron microscopy. The humidity sensors based on LiCl-KIT-6 composites were fabricated and the sensing properties were investigated. Results indicate the uniform pore distribution of KIT-6 contributes to the rapid hydrone transport in mesoporous channels. The impedance of optimized 3 wt% LiCl-KIT-6 sensor changed by more than three orders of magnitude over the relative humidity range of 11–95%. The response and recovery times of the sensor were 15 s and 28 s, respectively. Finally, the complex impedance method was used to analyze the humidity sensing mechanism of the sensor based on LiCl-KIT-6.
