  2. 1. Electrically conductive textile coatings with PEDOT:PSS

    Author : Maria Åkerfeldt; Anne Schwarz; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : textile coating; conductive coating; conjugated polymers; ICP; PEDOT:PSS; textile properties; textile sensor; printed electronics; Smart textiles; poly 3; 4-ethylene dioxythiophene -poly styrene sulfonate ; Textiles and Fashion General ; Textil och mode generell ;

    Abstract : In smart textiles, electrical conductivity is often required for several functions, especially contacting (electroding) and interconnecting. This thesis explores electrically conductive textile surfaces made by combining conventional textile coating methods with the intrinsically conductive polymer complex poly(3,4-ethylene dioxythiophene)-poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS).

  4. 2. Studies of electrically conductive textile coatings with PEDOT:PSS

    Author : Maria Åkerfeldt; Högskolan i Borås; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; textile coating; conductive coating; conjugated polymers; coating parameters; PEDOT:PSS; Textile technology; Textiles and Fashion General ; Textil och mode generell ;

    Abstract : This study investigates electrically conductive coatings of textiles, obtained with a direct coating and the addition of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) dispersion to a thickened polyurethane (PU)-based formulation. Textiles with enhanced electrical conductivity have potential applications in antistatic, electrostatic discharge protective, electromagnetic interference shielding, sensoric and temperature-regulating products.

  5. 3. Cellulose-based Conducting 3D and 2D Composites for Applications in Plant Science and Responsive Systems

    Author : Vasileios Oikonomou; Eleni Stavrinidou; Magnus Berggren; Anna Herland; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; polymers; cellulose; conjugated polymers; volume changes; plant growth substrates;

    Abstract : Polymers (Greek: poly=many, meros=part) are large molecules made up of many small parts (monomers) in a repetitive way, as a term was introduced for the first time (1833) by the Swedish chemist, Jöns Jakob Berzelius. By the combination of different monomers, the resulting polymer can exhibit various properties, such as biodegradability, photosensitivity and electrical conductivity. READ MORE

  6. 4. Functional composite coatings containing conducting polymers

    Author : Shadi Jafarzadeh; Per Martin Claesson; Arjan Mol; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Conducting polymer; Polyaniline; Conductive network; Nanocomposite; Active corrosion protection; Interfacial energy; UV curing; Kemi; Chemistry;

    Abstract : Organic coatings are widely used to lower the corrosion rate of metallic structures. However, penetration of water, oxygen and corrosive ions through pores present in the coating results in corrosion initiation and propagation once these species reach the metal substrate. READ MORE

  7. 5. Synthetic Functionalities for Ion and Electron Conductive Polymers : Applications in Organic Electronics and Biological Interfaces

    Author : Tobias Abrahamsson; Magnus Berggren; Daniel Simon; Mikhail Vagin; David Bliman; Roger Gabrielsson; David Mecerreyes; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES;

    Abstract : In the search for understanding and communicating with all biological systems, in humans, animals, plants, and even microorganisms, we find a common language of all communicating via electrons, ions and molecules. Since the discovery of organic electronics, the ability to bridge the gap and communicate be-tween modern technology and biology has emerged. READ MORE
