Microstructures and electrical conductance of silver nanocrystalline thin films on flexible polymer substrates

Commercial Dacron cloth supported Cu(OH)2 nanobelt arrays for wearable supercapacitors

“…The obtained Cu-plated cloth can be even violently kneaded without signicant damage to the Cu coating layer showing its good adhesion to the cloth ber. 31 A core@shell coaxial cable-like structure is clearly visible in the cross-sectional SEM images of the copperplated sample ( Fig. 2e), with the cloth ber as the core and the Cu layer as the shell.…”

Facile preparation of graphene nanoribbon filled silicone rubber nanocomposite with improved thermal and mechanical properties

“…To date, nano-scaled materials have attracted numerous interests throughout the world and have found wide applications everywhere [1][2][3][4][5][6]. As a class of very important candidates, carbon-based nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes (CNTs), graphene, and their derivatives have raised abundant research activities in the past few years [7][8][9][10][11][12].…”

Progress on Fabric Electrodes Used in Biological Signal Acquisition

“…Fabric electrode is different from traditional conductive gel, which is based on textile materials, and has unique advantages of fabrics such as breathability, flexibility, foldability. Fabric electrodes is different form conductive gel, which is easy to cause skin irritation or symptoms such as swelling when touching the skin for a long time, and greatly affect the use of the wearer [16] [17]. As for needle electrodes, in order to be able to accurately capture the electromyographic signal, needle electrodes often need to be inserted into human's body skin to collect potential of local motion unit activities.…”
