Electronic textiles (e-textiles) have drawn significant attention from the scientific and engineering community as lightweight and comfortable next-generation wearable devices due to their ability to interface with the human body, and continuously monitor, collect, and communicate various physiological parameters. However, one of the major challenges for the commercialization and further growth of e-textiles is the lack of compatible power supply units. Thin and flexible supercapacitors (SCs), among various energy storage systems, are gaining consideration due to their salient features including excellent lifetime, lightweight, and high-power density. Textile-based SCs are thus an exciting energy storage solution to power smart gadgets integrated into clothing. Here, materials, fabrications, and characterization strategies for textile-based SCs are reviewed. The recent progress of textile-based SCs is then summarized in terms of their electrochemical performances, followed by the discussion on key parameters for their wearable electronics applications, including washability, flexibility, and scalability. Finally, the perspectives on their research and technological prospects to facilitate an essential step towards moving from laboratory-based flexible and wearable SCs to industrial-scale mass production are presented. IntroductionWearable electronic textiles (e-textiles) have been going through significant evolutions in recent years, due to the continuous progress of material science and nanotechnology, miniaturization, and wireless revolution. [1,2] E-textiles possess functionalities such as sensing, computation, display, and communication, [3][4][5][6]

“…[110] Therefore, the other viable way to produce solution-processable graphene on a large scale is by reducing graphene oxide (GO). [111][112][113] GO is commonly used as the starting point for large-scale graphene production as the raw material (graphite) is naturally abundant. It can also easily produce stable aqueous dispersion by simple and cheap solution processes.…”

Multifunctional fiber-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites provide an ideal platform for next-generation smart composites applications including structural health monitoring, electrical and thermal conductivity, energy storage and harvesting, and electromagnetic interference shielding without compromising their mechanical properties. Recent progress in carbon-based nanomaterials such as graphene and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) has enabled the development of many novel multifunctional composites with excellent mechanical, electrical, and thermal properties. However, the effective incorporation of such carbon nanomaterials into FRP composites using scalable, high-speed, and cost-effective manufacturing without compromising their performance is challenging. This review summarizes the recent progress on graphene and CNT-based FRP composites, their manufacturing techniques, and their applications in smart composites. Current technical challenges and future perspectives on smart FRP composites research to facilitate an essential step toward moving from research and development-based smart composites to industrial-scale mass production are also discussed.

“…The next-generation electronic devices (e-devices) are developing in the direction of wearables, and their advantages of light weight and portability are attracting increasing attention. [1][2][3] The failure strain of monocrystalline silicon being less than 2%, 4 so many silicon-based devices have poor ductility with high weight, which makes it difficult to adapt them to the requirements of flexibility and portability for wearable e-devices. [5][6][7] At the same time, the high demand combined with the complexity of the traditional device preparation process make it difficult to achieve mass production at a low price.…”
