PolyU and the Hong Kong Research Institute of Textiles and Apparel have developed a novel electrically-conductive textile technology whereby the textile surface is modified with a negatively charged polyelectrolyte poly (methacrylic acid sodium salt) or poly (acrylic acid sodium salt) by in-situ free radical polymerization, and then treated with electroless metal deposition. Conductive textiles fabricated using this process exhibit robust mechanical and electrical stability under repeated cycles of rubbing, stretching and washing. They can also be integrated into wearable electronics to replace the conventional rigid conductive electrodes and wires.
