Electronic textiles or e-textiles are fabrics that enable electronic components such as batteries, lights, sensors, and microcontrollers to be embedded in them. Many smart clothing, wearable technology , and wearable computing projects involve the use of e-textiles.
There are several methods known to manufacture electrically conductive textiles. The simplest way is to incorporate metal wires or wire meshes into fabrics. Another approach is to use metalized yarns. In staple yarns, it is possible to spin short strands of regular yarns with metal yarns. Electrically conducting yarns may be made of a central ...
Industrial textiles can act as a component to strengthen other product, or act as a tool similar to filteration, or it can be a product (independently) sufficing several functions. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Indutech has vast application areas like filtration, cleaning, chemical industry, electrical applications and in mechanical engineering. [ 2 ]
Elsevier's parent company, RELX, has a global workforce that is 51% female to 49% male, with 43% female and 57% male managers, and 29% female and 71% male senior operational managers. [38] [39] In 2018, Elsevier accounted for 34% of the revenues of RELX group (£2.538 billion of £7.492 billion).
A technical textile is a textile product manufactured for non-aesthetic purposes, where function is the primary criterion. [1] Technical textiles include textiles for automotive applications, medical textiles (e.g., implants), geotextiles (reinforcement of embankments), agrotextiles (textiles for crop protection), and protective clothing (e.g., heat and radiation protection for fire fighter ...
Electrospinning is a fiber production method that uses electrical force (based on electrohydrodynamic [1] principles) to draw charged threads of polymer solutions for producing nanofibers with diameters ranging from nanometers to micrometers.
Ei Compendex is an engineering bibliographic database published by Elsevier. The name "Compendex" stands for COMPuterized ENgineering inDEX. [1] It covers scientific literature pertaining to engineering materials. It started in 1884 under the name Engineering Index (Ei) and its first electronic bulletin was issued in 1967. [2]
A conductive textile is a fabric which can conduct electricity. Conductive textiles known as lamé are made with guipé thread or yarn that is conductive because it is composed of metallic fibers wrapped around a non-metallic core or has a metallic coating. A different way of achieving conductivity is to weave metallic strands into the textile.
