Electronic textile resistor design and fabric resistivity characterization

Abstract: Electronic components formed from electrically conductive textiles require a clear characterization of properties, such as electrical resistance, to enable the design and manufacture of safe and reliable electronic textile devices. The low dimensional stability of some electroactive fabrics can present challenges to electronic characterization. In this study, an electrical resistor was formed within a fabric by sewing a highly conductive metallic coated thread into less conductive fabric. A knitted fabric trea… Show more

“…It was suggested by Sparavigna, Florio, Avloni, and Henn (2010) and Macasaquit and Binag (2010) that 100% polyester fabrics could easily be made electrically conductive by polypyrrole coating and they were practically useful for many applications, including flexible, portable surface-heating elements for medical or other applications. An electrical resistor was formed within a fabric by sewing a highly conductive silver coated yarn into less conductive polypyrrole treated knitted fabric (Petersen, Helmer, Pate, & Eichhoff, 2011). This was found to be a useful method for enabling electrical connection to a fabric for characterization of a fabric's resistivity and design of a fabric resistor.…”

“…The surface resistance of flat textile products is substitute resistance resulting from the yarns resistance and contact resistance occurring between the yarns forming a fibrous structure [24][25][26]28]. Due to the new use of electrically conductive textiles, e.g.…”

“…The coating of polyaniline on to a flexible substrate such as textile fabrics and sheet can retain the flexibility of the fabrics and the electrical conductivity of the conducting polymers [11][12][13]. The fabric has its electrical resistance which is favored by the properties of the conductive fibers, their interconnection within a fabric and to external circuitry, and the geometry of the fabric [14]. Electrical resistivity of the cotton depends mainly on the layer of wax on its surface which when damaged during the spinning process leads to an increase in its resistivity.…”
