Electrifying waste textiles: Transforming fabric scraps into high-performance triboelectric nanogenerators for biomechanical energy harvesting

Textiles are an integral part of daily life globally, but their widespread use leads to significant waste generation. Repurposing these discarded fabrics for energy harvesting offers a sustainable solution to both energy demand and textile waste management. In this study, Textile-based Triboelectric Nanogenerators (T-TENGs) were developed using recycled cloth as tribopositive layers and polyvinyl chloride (PVC) film as the tribonegative layer, with aluminum foil tape serving as electrodes. Five different recycled textiles were evaluated, and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS) analysis revealed a correlation between yarn structure and carbon content, leading to enhanced triboelectric performance. Silk-based TENG (S-TENG) demonstrated the highest output, with 320.76 V and 8.73 µA, while exhibiting stable performance over 10,000 cycles. Practical applications were explored by integrating T-TENGs into shoe insoles for energy harvesting during walking and jumping, with rayon-based TENG generating up to 208.52 V on a PVC coil mat. This work highlights the dual benefits of waste reduction and sustainable energy applications, making a compelling case for advanced technologies where recycled textiles function as frictional materials to harvest mechanical energy from human motion and convert it into electrical energy for use in flexible sensors and wearable devices.

Energy harvesting from ambient sources present in the environment is essential to replace traditional energy sources. These strategies can diversify the energy sources, reduce maintenance, lower costs, and provide near-perpetual operation of the devices. In this work, a triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) based on silane-coupled Linde type A/polydimethylsiloxane (LTA/PDMS) is developed for harsh environmental conditions. The silane-coupled LTA/PDMS-based TENG can produce a high output power density of 42.6 µW/cm2 at a load resistance of 10 MΩ and operates at an open-circuit voltage of 120 V and a short-circuit current of 15 µA under a damping frequency of 14 Hz. Furthermore, the device shows ultra-robust and stable cyclic repeatability for more than 30 k cycles. The fabricated TENG is used for the physiological monitoring and charging of commercial capacitors to drive low-power electronic devices. Hence, these results suggest that the silane-coupled LTA/PDMS approach can be used to fabricate ultra-robust TENGs for harsh environmental conditions and also provides an effective path toward wearable self-powered microelectronic devices.

We demonstrated a facile fabrication of lithium niobate (LNO) nanostructures embedded in polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) using ultrasound irradiation followed by a solvent-casting method and assessed their use towards biomechanical and wave energy harvesting. The physicochemical characterizations of LNO/PVDF nanocomposite films, such as FE-SEM, FT-IR, laser-Raman, and mapping analyses, ensure the formation of uniformly dispersed LNO nanostructures in PVDF matrix with enhanced electroactive β-phase. A piezoelectric nanogenerator (PENG) was constructed using LNO/PVDF nanocomposite with different weight ratios of LNO, and their energy harvesting performances were investigated. The 5 wt.% LNO/PVDF PENG showed better energy harvesting properties, generating a high voltage of 44 V, short-circuit current of ∼0.45 µA, power density (2.2 µW cm−2), and excellent stability. The LNO/PVDF PENG, when placed in the human body, shows an output voltage of 2.6 V, even under minimal deformation applied to the device, suggesting better energy-conversion properties. To evaluate the wave energy harnessing property, the LNO/PVDF PENG was placed under water, which shows the difference in voltage output from 5.43 to 14.7 mV (low to high) with respect to the variation in wave energy. Our experimental findings ensure that LNO/PVDF PENG will act as a suitable power source for next-generation wearable and portable electronics.

Self-Poled Piezoelectric Nanocomposite Fiber Sensors for Wireless Monitoring of Physiological Signals.

Self-powered sensors have the potential to enable real-time health monitoring without contributing to the ever-growing demand for energy. Piezoelectric nanogenerators (PENGs) respond to mechanical deformations to produce electrical signals, imparting a sensing capability without external power sources. Textiles conform to the human body and serve as an interactive biomechanical energy harvesting and sensing medium without compromising comfort. However, the textile-based PENG fabrication process is complex and lacks scalability, making these devices impractical for mass production. Here, we demonstrate the fabrication of a long-length PENG fiber compatible with industrial-scale manufacturing. The thermal drawing process enables the one-step fabrication of self-poled MoS2-poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) nanocomposite fiber devices integrated with electrodes. Heat and stress during thermal drawing and MoS2 nanoparticle addition facilitate interfacial polarization and dielectric modulation to enhance the output performance. The fibers show a 57 and 70% increase in the output voltage and current compared to the pristine PVDF fiber, respectively, at a considerably low MoS2 loading of 3 wt %. The low Young's modulus of the outer cladding ensures an effective stress transfer to the piezocomposite domain and allows minute motion detection. The flexible fibers demonstrate wireless, self-powered physiological sensing and biomotion analysis capability. The study aims to guide the large-scale production of highly sensitive integrated fibers to enable textile-based and plug-and-play wearable sensors.

These composites also feature flexibility, mechanical robustness, high transparency, faster photochromic reversibility, as well as dispensing printing. Importantly, the underlying multi-color photochromic mechanism is elucidated by leveraging the theoretical simulation and characterization techniques. A UV detection bracelet for real-time UV monitoring and a proton conductor for a wearable biomechanical energy harvester were fabricated using the photochromic composites, indicating application potentials for smart wearable electronics.

Triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) with exceptionally durable energy harvesting performance are increasingly important in the pursuit of sustainable/renewable energy sources. However, the durability of frictional electricity material inevitably decreases due to material abrasion, which significantly hinders their real-world application. Here, robust and flexible films composed of CB/Fe3O4/PDMS and CB/Fe3O4/PDMS@Au microarrays have been employed as paired frictional electricity materials, wrapped around the surface of cylindrical electrodes to develop rotary TENG. When two rotary electrodes contact, the aforementioned paired microarrays intersect, causing overlapping friction. This leads to an increased contact electrified surface area, resulting in high output performance with a maximum peak power density reaching 16.2 mW m−2. Importantly, the configuration of this rotary TENG described herein effectively prevents frictional material damage caused by friction. This is achieved by allowing free rolling movement instead of being fixed in a stationary position, thereby ensuring exceptional durability. Furthermore, the resulting rotary TENG shows exceptional biomechanical energy harvesting capability even after undergoing multiple rotations and experiencing friction for up to 100,000 cycles. The durable PDMS-based microarrays film exhibits great potential for flexible/wearable TENGs, highlighting their potential applications and impact on the field of sustainable energy harvesting technology.
