Electro-spun fibres are a promising candidate for cloth-based tribo-electric nanogenerators (TENGs) according to the University of Fukui. Electro-spinning involves drawing solutions of polymers into fibres using electrical charge. The researchers have developed an all-fibre composite layer TENG that can be integrated with normal cloth. “With our work, we are aiming to provide a new point of ...
