  1. 11. Development and Evaluation of Textile Actuators

    University essay from Linköpings universitet/Biosensorer och bioelektronik

    Author : Fredrik Ekman; [2016]
    Keywords : Conducting Polymer; Textile; Actuator; Soft Robotics;

    Abstract : Existing actuators in robotics are noisy, rigid and not very lifelike in their movements. There is a need for actuators in especially limb prosthetics and exoskeletons that are silent, softly moving and preferably operating on low currents. One such solution is the conducting polymers.

  2. 12. Polymer-based conductive fibers

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Fredrik Karlsson; Erik Söderlöv; [2016]
    Keywords : PEDOT poly 3; 4-ethylenedioxythiophene ; VPP vapor phase polymerization ; CVD chemical vapor deposition ; Lyocell;

    Abstract : Conductive polymers, since from their discovery, have become a prominent area of research and found many useful applications in all fields of our daily life. Examples are light emitting diodes, heat generation, chemical sensors and electro-active membranes. Polymer coated textile substrates give flexible and lightweight materials. READ MORE

  3. 13. Light induced textile substrate with switchable and reversible wettability : Development of a switchability and reversibility effect between hydrophobic and hydrophilic states on a polyamide-66 textile substrate

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Akademin för textil, teknik och ekonomi

    Author : Rosalinda Sardo Infirri; [2016]
    Keywords : Polyamide-66; Titanium dioxide; Silicone; Zinc oxide; Azobenzene; Switchability; Reversibility; Hydrophobic; Hydrophilic;

    Abstract : Biomimicry means literally ‘imitation of life’ and is providing sustainable solutions for challenges that are occurring in the human lives. To date, the biomimic research reports that wettability in nature, e.g. READ MORE

  4. 14. Piezoelectric behaviour of woven constructions based on poly(vinylidene fluoride) bicomponent fibres

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Institutionen Textilhögskolan

    Author : KARIN RUNDQVIST; [2013]
    Keywords : Piezoelectricity; poly vinylidene; fluoride ; PVDF ; ; bicomponent fibre; conductive fibres; textile sensor; tensile sensor; weaving;

    Abstract : During this project it was investigated how the newly developed piezoelectric PVDF bicomponent fibre behaved when integrated in different weave constructions. The possibility to integrate conductive yarns as outer electrode was studied in order to see if it was possible to create a fully textile piezoelectric sensors. READ MORE

  5. 15. PEDOT Coated Viscose Fibers by Optimized OCVD Process : Washing and Stretch Sensing Properties

    University essay from Högskolan i Borås/Institutionen Textilhögskolan

    Author : MAJID ALI; [2013]
    Keywords : Viscose yarn; conductive polymers; PEDOT; ferric III chloride; ferric tosylate p-toluene sulfonate ; stretch sensors;

    Abstract : Electroactive textile fibers are key components in smart and interactive textile applications. In previous research on textile base conductive fibers, viscose fibers were coated with poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophne) (PEDOT) using oxidative chemical vapor deposition (oCVD) technique[1].
