Abstract
In recent years, triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have garnered extensive attention in the realm of self-powered sensors due to their capability to harness low-frequency mechanical energy. Among these, textile-based triboelectric nanogenerator stands out as a pivotal platform for wearable sensing. Nevertheless, conventional approaches, such as directly coating triboelectric materials on fabrics, often compromise the inherent properties. In this study, we utilized our self-developed electro-centrifugal spinning equipment to continuously fabricate core-sheath yarns with micro/nano structures, resulting in the development of pocket-shaped fabric-based (PF) TENGs. This innovative design preserves the original softness and breathability of the fabric while delivering substantial electrical output owing to its layered structure and extensive specific surface area. PF–TENGs can accurately detect electrical output signals from various motion states. This electro–centrifugal spinning technology offers new research directions and sensing application prospects for self-powered smart textile development.
期刊介绍:
Composites Communications (Compos. Commun.) is a peer-reviewed journal publishing short communications and letters on the latest advances in composites science and technology. With a rapid review and publication process, its goal is to disseminate new knowledge promptly within the composites community. The journal welcomes manuscripts presenting creative concepts and new findings in design, state-of-the-art approaches in processing, synthesis, characterization, and mechanics modeling. In addition to traditional fiber-/particulate-reinforced engineering composites, it encourages submissions on composites with exceptional physical, mechanical, and fracture properties, as well as those with unique functions and significant application potential. This includes biomimetic and bio-inspired composites for biomedical applications, functional nano-composites for thermal management and energy applications, and composites designed for extreme service environments.
