Research in the field of wearable triboelectric generators is increasing, and pioneering research into real applications of this technology is a growing need in both scientific and industry research. In addition to the two key characteristics of wearable triboelectric generators of flexibility and generating friction, features such as softness, breathability, washability, and wear resistance have also attracted a lot of attention from the research community. This paper reviews wearable triboelectric generators that are used in human clothing for energy conversion. The study focuses on analyzing fabric structure and examining the integration method of flexible generators and common fibers/yarns/textiles. Compared to the knitting method, the woven method has fewer restrictions on the flexibility and thickness of the yarn. Remaining challenges and perspectives are also investigated to suggest how to bring fully generated clothing to practical applications in the near future.
可穿戴摩擦电发电机领域的研究正在增加,在科学研究和工业研究中,对这项技术实际应用的开创性研究需求日益增长。除了可穿戴摩擦电发电机灵活性和产生摩擦这两个关键特性外,柔软性、透气性、可洗涤性和耐磨性等特性也引起了研究界的广泛关注。本文综述了用于人类服装能量转换的可穿戴摩擦电发电机。该研究重点分析织物结构,并研究柔性发电机与普通纤维/纱线/纺织品的集成方法。与针织方法相比,机织方法对纱线的柔韧性和厚度限制较少。还研究了剩余的挑战和前景,以提出如何在不久的将来使完全发电的服装应用于实际。
