Request a sales quoteNonmetallic electroconductive textiles, unlike metals, offer flexibility, durability, moldability, and lightweight attributes. A brilliant quality of these textiles is the capability to alter conductivity through various external stimuli (e.g., strain, torsion, pH, humidity) to suit a specific application such as sensors, heating garments, EMI shielding, energy harvesting devices, and wearable electronics.
Based on these concepts, Advances in Electrically Conductive Textiles: Materials, Characterization, and Applications has been structured into three main sections. Section I contains chapters discussing the various preparation methods of electroconductive textiles, Section II contains chapters on their characteristics and features, and Section III details the end-use applications and sustainability of these textiles.
- Explores strategies and methods in the development of electroconductive textile composites
- Investigates features of nonmetallic conductive textiles prepared from graphene, conductive polymers, MXene, and carbon nanotubes
- Examines the application of electroconductive textiles for heat generation, EMI shielding, sensors, antimicrobial, filtration, energy storage, energy harvesting, and smart textiles
