Abstract

Integrated smart clothing with photothermal conversion and thermosensing functions is highly desired for next-generation smart wearable applications. Conducting polymer is a promising material that possesses efficient photothermal conversion performance, great sensitivity to temperature change, and excellent processing properties. In this study, we report a new wearable material using the conducting polymer polypyrrole (PPy) as a photothermal and thermosensing layer and nonwoven fabric as flexible textiles to fabricate integrated PPy-based smart clothing (IPSC). The surface temperature of the prepared IPSC can be as high as 68.4 °C with 808 nm near-infrared (NIR) irradiation at a power destiny of 1 kW/m2. Meanwhile, a temperature resolution of 1 °C can be achieved for IPSC. These superiorities are in favor of fabricating multifunctional smart wearables to satisfy the needs in future life.
