Abstract
This review explores advancements in smart textiles, emphasizing the integration of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and polyaniline (PANI). Combining these materials enhances the physical properties and functionalities of textiles, particularly in wearable electronics. SWCNTs improve the mechanical strength, thermal stability, and electrical properties of PANI-coated textiles. We discuss key fabrication techniques like solution blending and electrospinning and address the challenges of SWCNT integration such as dispersion and potential toxicity. Additionally, the review covers the broader application potential of SWCNTs in multifunctional smart textiles, including self-healing materials and sensors. This analysis aims to inform researchers and industry professionals about the current capabilities and future possibilities of SWCNTs and PANI in textile engineering.
期刊介绍：
Composites Part A: Applied Science and Manufacturing is a comprehensive journal that publishes original research papers, review articles, case studies, short communications, and letters covering various aspects of composite materials science and technology. This includes fibrous and particulate reinforcements in polymeric, metallic, and ceramic matrices, as well as 'natural' composites like wood and biological materials. The journal addresses topics such as properties, design, and manufacture of reinforcing fibers and particles, novel architectures and concepts, multifunctional composites, advancements in fabrication and processing, manufacturing science, process modeling, experimental mechanics, microstructural characterization, interfaces, prediction and measurement of mechanical, physical, and chemical behavior, and performance in service. Additionally, articles on economic and commercial aspects, design, and case studies are welcomed. All submissions undergo rigorous peer review to ensure they contribute significantly and innovatively, maintaining high standards for content and presentation. The editorial team aims to expedite the review process for prompt publication.
