Smart clothing is a promising market, and even health monitors and LED display technology can be integrated into smart clothing. However, most of today's smart textiles are too stiff and expensive to be made into practical wearables. According to foreign media reports, a new study by the Cambridge Graphite Center (CGC) and Jiangnan University may change this situation. Scientists have developed conductive fabrics containing graphene that can solve the problem of smart clothing not being too soft and not expensive. By chemically changing the internal structure of graphene, scientists have developed graphene flakes that are no different from cotton fabrics and showcased the results through a wearable motion sensor. After testing, the wearable smart fabric can be turned into a washing machine for 500 laps without any damage. At present, researchers have developed smart clothing with graphene pressure sensors and heart rate sensors, which can collect physiological health data such as heart rate and blood oxygen. In the future, our clothes will be connected to the mobile phone via Bluetooth, and we can collect our own health without the need for other smart wearable devices. The most important feature of graphene is its thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity. There are already some clothing on the market that can “powerâ€. This kind of smart textile is equipped with photovoltaic materials or sports power generation devices. When our mobile phone needs to be charged, the clothes can act as mobile power supply. The thermal conductivity of graphene also provides infrared physiotherapy for the human body. With it, you don't have to dress as thick in winter. Graphene is a two-dimensional crystal which is separated from a graphite material and composed of carbon atoms and has a single layer of atomic thickness. Based on carbon, graphene has great potential in various fields, such as battery technology, computer chips, electric vehicles, and airship manufacturing. Because it is only nano-thick, very soft, flexible, and has good thermal conductivity and firmness, these features make graphene the key to future breakthroughs in wearable devices. In 2004, Physicist Andrew Gem and Konstantin Novoselov of the University of Manchester in the United Kingdom discovered graphene and won the 2010 Nobel Prize. Since then, graphene has become one of the most sought-after materials in the 21st century. It also has the names of “black gold†and “king of new materialsâ€. Some people even think that graphene will become a substitute for silicon. And would graphene fabric really be the future of wearables?
