6 Emerging trends in electroconductive textiles
-
Abstract
This chapter provides comprehensive information about the various electroconductive textiles prepared from carbon/graphene, carbon nanotube, MXene, and conductive polymers. Preparation, characterization, and applications of these electroconductive textiles are presented in this chapter. Potential applications of these electroconductive textiles, such as heating and cooling garments, electromagnetic interference shielding, antibacterial efficacy, strain sensor, humidity sensor, and pH sensors are described.
