Phys.org June 5, 2023 Some of the energy supply units cannot meet the energy requirements for wearable electronics which requires its energy supply part to be flexible, wearable, integratable and sustainable. Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have developed wearable sustainable energy harvesting-storage hybrid self-charging power textile. The power textile consists of a coaxial fiber-shaped polylactic acid/reduced graphene oxide/polypyrrole (PLA-rGO-PPy), triboelectric nanogenerator (fiber-TENG) which is flexible can harvest low-frequency and irregular energy during human motion, and a novel coaxial fiber-shaped supercapacitor (fiber-SC) as an energy storage unit. The integrated power textile can provide an efficient route for sustainable working […]
