Highly Stretchable and Flexible Melt Spun Thermoplastic Conductive Yarns for Smart Textiles

Highly Stretchable and Flexible Melt Spun Thermoplastic Conductive Yarns for Smart Textiles

This study demonstrates a scalable fabrication process for producing biodegradable, highly stretchable and wearable melt spun thermoplastic polypropylene (PP), poly(lactic) acid (PLA), and composite (PP:PLA = 50:50) conductive yarns through a dip coating process. Polydopamine (PDA) treated and poly(...
