Abstract

The rapid development of smart and wearable textiles has been driven by the need for smaller and lighter electronic circuits. To make textile surfaces conductive, various methods have been developed, with vapor-phase polymerization being a preferred method due to its smoothness, conductivity, and ease of application. This study investigates the effect of fundamental characteristics of textile fabrics, such as weave type and filament count, on electrical conductivity. Fabrics woven with different filament counts and weave types were coated with PEDOT polymer using vapor-phase polymerization. The results showed that the fabric woven with 150F288 yarns and a 3/1 twill weave exhibited lower electrical resistance, attributed to the microfibrous structure of the yarn and the twill's staggered structure. Despite increases in resistance values after performance tests, the electrical resistance values remained within a sufficient conductivity range. This research contributes to the understanding of how fabric characteristics affect the electrical conductivity of coated textiles, paving the way for the development of smart electronic textiles.
