3D-printed smart fabrics stay strong and flexible after washing

  • Researchers at Washington State University have developed a method for 3D-printing smart fabrics that are durable and comfortable to wear.
  • They used a special solution made of polybutylene succinate and carbon nanotubes to create flexible and conductive fabrics capable of sensing movement and transmitting data.
  • The printed fabrics demonstrated durability, maintaining their strength, conductivity, and sensing abilities even after multiple cycles of washing, stretching, and relaxing.
  • The use of a biodegradable solvent in the production process highlights the environmentally friendly approach taken by the researchers in advancing smart fabric technology.
