Weavable, Reconfigurable Triboelectric Ferrofluid Fiber for Early Warning

As communication technologies have become omnipresent, the prevalence of electromagnetic field (EMF) exposures poses possible health risks, particularly to vulnerable groups such as pregnant women. In response, we introduce a triboelectric ferrofluid fiber (TFF) that moves in response to EMF, thereby generating charge in a way that is self-powered. The TFF is flexible, stretchable (470%), and can be woven into fabrics. The TFF utilizes a soft-contact (ferrofluid-silicon rubber fiber) triboelectric core layer to enhance its sensitivity to EMF, enabling it to detect even minor electromagnetic fluctuations, such as those from cell phone typing. By integrating hydrogel electrodes that offer conductivity and minimal electromagnetic interference shielding, the TFF’s sensitivity to magnetic fields is further amplified. Moreover, its open-circuit voltage output is increased by 50% compared to the conventional electrodes. Building on this technology, we designed a smart fabric for environmental early warning and potential real-time pulse monitoring, specifically tailored for the safety and healthcare needs of vulnerable groups. Finally, we developed a sensing and communication apparel (SCA) by integrating TFF into the apparel and exploring its capabilities in a wireless transmission of warning signals and long-distance NFC functionality.
