Description
Summary:With recent development in the field of wearable devices for biomedical applications, various studies have been conducted on the fabrication of electrically conductive circuit on flexible substrate materials such as paper or textile. In this project, we propose the fabrication of electrically conductive circuit on cotton fabric using simple wax patterning method. Using this method, hydrophilic and hydrophobic regions were patterned on the fabric and graphene-poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly (styrenesulfonic acid) (graphene-PEDOT:PSS) ink was deposited on the hydrophilic region using pipetting method. Conductive lines with higher conductance were fabricated by multiple deposition of the conductive ink and electronic components were successfully attached on the fabric to develop a simple fully functional flexible circuit.
