3D printing is a popular technique for fabricating three-dimensional solid objects from digital design. In order to produce high quality printed parts, the appropriate selection of parameters crucial. This research focused on studying properties specimens (i.e., mechanical, thermal and morphological) with varying processing conditions such as infill pattern, density speed, also different materials. A number testing techniques tensile, bending, compression, differential scanning calorimetry...
Graphene-based wearable e-textiles are considered to be promising due their advantages over traditional metal-based technology. However, the manufacturing process is complex and currently not suitable for industrial scale application. Here we report a simple, scalable, cost-effective method of producing graphene-based through chemical reduction graphene oxide (GO) make stable reduced (rGO) dispersion which can then applied textile fabric using simple pad-dry technique. This application...
Multifunctional wearable e-textiles have been a focus of much attention due to their great potential for healthcare, sportswear, fitness, space, and military applications. Among them, electroconductive textile yarn shows promise use as next-generation flexible sensors without compromising the properties comfort usual textiles. However, current manufacturing process metal-based is expensive, unscalable, environmentally unfriendly. Here we report highly scalable ultrafast production...

The concept of "system systems" architecture is increasingly prevalent in many critical domains. Such systems allow information to be pulled from a variety sources, analyzed discover correlations and trends, stored enable real-time post-hoc assessment, mined better inform decision-making, leveraged automate control system units. In contrast, medical devices typically have been developed as monolithic stand-alone However, vision emerging notion application platform (MAP) that would provide...
Abstract Graphene‐based wearable electronic textiles (e‐textiles) show promise for next‐generation personalized healthcare applications due to their non‐invasive nature. However, the poor performance, less comfort, and higher material cost limit wide applications. Here a simple scalable production method of producing graphene‐based electro‐conductive yarn that is further embroidered realize piezoresistive sensors reported. The multilayer structures improved conductivity sensors, exhibiting...
Abstract Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S), a sulfur‐based toxic gas similar to the well‐known Mustard gas, has an unpleasant odor often causes uncomfortableness, destress, allergy, and/or mental failure during social occasions. Here, unique cotton fabric with its surface intensively coated (up 40 wt.%) zeolitic imidazolate framework‐8 (ZIF‐8) is synthesized via facile and low‐cost hydrothermal method. The results of H S capture test after 3 h exposure show that ZIF‐8@Cotton‐6 can achieve up 20 wt.%...
