In this project, electrically conductive plant fibre (PF) based textiles will be developed for sensing (e.g. strain, damage, moisture, etc.) and energy applications (e.g. supercapacitors, batteries, etc.). Textile structures with tailored properties will be produced using renewable and cheap PFs using a low-cost textile technology and subsequently, functionalised with conducting nanomaterials using an eco-friendly deposition technique. Detailed research will be performed on the nano-ink preparation and deposition method to achieve the targeted level of electrical conductivity. These light-weight, thin, flexible and eco-friendly textiles will have great potential to replace expensive and rigid metallic and synthetic materials with high carbon footprints.

在该项目中，将开发基于导电植物纤维（PF）的纺织品，用于传感（例如应变、损坏、湿度等）和能源应用（例如超级电容器、电池等）。具有定制特性的纺织结构将使用低成本纺织技术，使用可再生且廉价的PF来生产，随后使用环保沉积技术通过导电纳米材料进行功能化。将对纳米墨水的制备和沉积方法进行详细研究，以达到目标的导电率水平。这些轻、薄、柔韧且环保的纺织品将有巨大潜力取代昂贵且刚性的高碳足迹金属和合成材料。
