Abstract

Smart textiles can sense different stimuli such as pressure, temperature etc., to allow users to react and adapt. Such features are accomplished through integration of various fiber-based sensors and electronic components in textile structures. Yarn is 1-dimensional structure which can be modified to behave as a sensor and can further be integrated with other sensors or electronics to form smart textile by techniques like weaving, knitting, and braiding. In this work, a flexible temperature sensor is reported by modifying a stainless-steel yarn with V2O5 nanowires. The current profile and temperature sensing performance is measured from 5 to 50 °C. The device exhibits sensitivity of 3.7 %/°C and response time of ~9s. The present work demonstrates the potential of using yarn as a flexible temperature sensor that can be used to realize smart textile for wearable and healthcare applications.
