“…11) led to the contact surface between it and the warp yarn was small, which resulted in great contact resistance between them. 27,28 Additionally, the stainless steel wire was easily to be broken. Therefore, for the selection of the conductive we yarn, the conductive multilament or stranded metal wire should be adopted to get a lower contact resistance.…”

“…The response mechanism of CTMs-based strain sensors is that the resistance changes with stretching, which can be explained by changes in the fabric’s geometric structure and associated contact points between fibers and yarns within the structure. A number of strategies have been developed to prepare CTMs with sensing performance [21,23,24,25,26,27,28,29,30,31,32]. For example, reduced graphene oxide was combined with cotton to fabricate flexible sensing fabrics [17,20].…”

Conductive cotton fabric was prepared by coating single-wall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) on a knitted cotton fabric surface through a "dip-and-dry" method. The combination of CNTs and cotton fabric was analyzed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Raman scattering spectroscopy. The CNTs coating improved the mechanical properties of the fabric and imparted conductivity to the fabric. The electromechanical performance of the CNT-cotton fabric (CCF) was evaluated. Strain sensors made from the CCF exhibited a large workable strain range (0~100%), fast response and great stability. Furthermore, CCF-based strain sensors was used to monitor the real-time human motions, such as standing, walking, running, squatting and bending of finger and elbow. The CCF also exhibited strong electric heating effect. The flexible strain sensors and electric heaters made from CCF have potential applications in wearable electronic devices and cold weather conditions.

“…The combination of conventional polymers with conductive additives, such as metallic powders, conductive carbonaceous materials, and intrinsically conductive polymers, allows the creation of polymer composite materials with proper balance among their electrical, mechanical, and processing characteristics. These conductive polymer composites have been successfully used in electromagnetic interference shielding, shape‐memory devices, mechanical actuators, scaffolds for tissue engineering, and chemical and electromechanical sensors, among other technological applications.…”

The electrical, mechanical, and piezoresistive properties of ternary composites based on elastomeric polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), carbon nanotubes (CNTs), and polyaniline (PANI) were studied and compared with those of binary PDMS-CNT composites. The presence of PANI affected the percolating network of the CNTs. At lower PANI concentrations (2.5 and 5%), the conductive network of the CNTs was constructively modified; this led to an enhancement in the conductivity in the sample containing 2% CNTs. A higher PANI content (7.5%) hindered the flow of main charge carriers through the composite. The piezoresistive response of the binary and ternary composites was studied by cyclic experiments under compression loads. In all of the samples, the electrical resistance increased monotonically up to a 10% strain. The reproducibility of the piezoresistive behavior in the binary and ternary composites provided evidence that the fillers could reversibly recover their initial position together with the PDMS chains without a significant displacement with respect to their original positions. The reduction of the piezoresistive sensibility by PANI addition was attributed to the displacement restrictions of the CNTs within the composite under pressure because of the volume exclusion of PANI particles; this maintained the probability of CNT contact and increased the possibility of the formation of new CNT conductive channels.
