Application of Graphene and Its Composites in Functional Textiles
In order to promote the development of functional textiles,the properties,morphology and structural characteristics of graphene and its derivatives are introduced,and the application mechanism of graphene and its composites in functional textiles such as electric heating,anti-bacterial,flame retardant,far infrared and electromagnetic shielding is analyzed based on the application cases of graphene and its composites in electric heating textiles,antibacterial tex-tiles,flame retardant textiles,etc.,and the development prospect is expounded.It is pointed out that graphene and its composites have good electrical,thermal,optical and mechanical proper-ties,and have large research space and good development prospects in the field of electric heat-ing and antibacterial textiles.However,the size of graphene powder is unstable,the number of layers is not uniform,the content of single layer is relatively low,and the short circuit is easy to appear in electric heating textiles,and the application in color textiles is limited.
