Bio‐templated Piezoresistive Yarn for High Sensitivity Movement Monitoring Textiles

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study developed a conductive coating by biotemplating silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) onto a Potato virus A (PV) particle network, cross‐linked on co‐polyamide‐starch (CoPA‐SS) coils. The combination of CoPA‐SS's shape memory and PV‐AgNP's piezoresistivity achieved high strain sensitivity and minimal hysteresis.

Occurrence and Washout of Health‐Hazardous Chemicals in Children's Clothing

Contact Dermatitis, EarlyView.
A survey of 60 children's garments from the Swedish market showed a varying, often highly complex chemical content. The highest levels were generally found in synthetic materials and the lowest in light‐coloured cotton. Further, the washout effect by laundry and sweat migration of textile chemicals was investigated.

Impact of Textile Architecture on the Electromechanical Behavior of Conductive Carbon: Silicone Composite Strain Sensors

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 6, 18 March 2026.
A stretchable carbon composite is integrated by stencil printing onto two different types of textile, with different yarn morphologies. The impact of the knit structure and coating direction on the performance of the sensor composite is evaluated and used to derive a model estimating nominal resistance at a given strain near the percolation threshold ...

Hybrid Finite Element Model for Predicting the Interface Pressure of Medical Compression Stockings

International Journal for Numerical Methods in Biomedical Engineering, Volume 42, Issue 2, February 2026.
The proposed hybrid finite element model for predicting the interface pressure of medical compression stockings considers local fabric architecture and individual mechanical contributions of yarn systems. FE simulations on ankle and calf zones reproduce the therapeutic pressure gradient and match PicoPress sensor data within 10%–20% of error and ...
