Iranian Company Produces Wearable Electrical Clothes Using Conductive Textiles
An Iranian technological company produces electronic textiles for shielding against electromagnetic radiation in the range of X-rays. The textile has improved conductivity, therefore, it is suitable for producing wearable electrical clothes.
Bahareh Moazenchi, the chairwoman of the board of directors of the mentioned Iranian company said that the textile can be used in various fields such as medicine and sports.
“Currently, the textile is being tried in the trial phase by one of the companies operating in the field of orthopedic equipment production. Since this fabric is electrically conductive, it can be used to produce wearable electronic clothes,” she also said.
“For example, if electronic parts are placed on sports clothes, without the need for wires, these fabrics can transmit the current from the energy supply source (battery) to the favored part (such as lamps). So, these fabrics can also be used to produce batteries and flexible electrodes. One of the properties of these textiles is that they are anti-radiation material to protect the user against electromagnetic radiation,” the managing director added.
Moazenchi pointed to the production of chemicals with fireproof, anti-pest and anti-microbial properties as other products made in their company, saying, “Currently, a growing number of paper producing companies use our products.”
“The shielding fabric technology was the topic of my doctoral thesis, which I continued after finishing my studies in order to commercialize my idea in this company. This company was established in 2012 and became knowledge-based in 2014. The founders of this company have more than 80 ISI articles and several registered patents both at home and abroad,” she went on to note.
“In addition to protecting and absorbing radiation, conductive textiles are also used in the production of electronic fabrics and flexible electronic devices and fabric batteries, and these textiles can be a suitable substitute for wires and cables,” the managing director of the company concluded.
