This study presents the fabrication and characterization of magnetically active textiles using cotton fibers impregnated with suspensions pumpkin seed oil, carbonyl iron microparticles, propolis microparticles. The were utilized to manufacture planar capacitors, enabling an investigation effects static magnetic fields introduced microparticles on components complex dielectric permittivity. results reveal that properties fabricated are highly sensitive applied field intensity, frequency alternating electric field, composition impregnating suspension. experimental findings suggest loss permittivity can be finely tuned by adjusting flux density proportion multifunctional nature these responsive textiles, combined bioactive incorporated natural components, opens promising pathways for applications in smart biomedical devices, sensor technologies.
