Abstract Wearable thermoelectric generator arrays have the potential to use waste body heat to power on-body sensors and create, for example, self-powered health monitoring systems. In this work, we demonstrate that a surface coating of a conducting polymer poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT-Cl), created on one face of a wool felt using a chemical vapor deposition method was able to manifest a Seebeck voltage when subjected to a temperature gradient. The wool felt devices can produce voltage outputs of up to 120 mV when measured on a human body. Herein, we present a strategy to create arrays of polymer-coated fabric thermopiles and to integrate such arrays into familiar garments that could become a part of a consumer’s daily wardrobe. Using wool felt as the substrate fabric onto which the conducting polymer coating is created allowed for a higher mass loading of the polymer on the fabric surface and shorter thermoelectric legs, as compared to our previous iteration. Six or eight of these PEDOT-Cl coated wool felt swatches were sewed onto a backing/support fabric and interconnected with silver threads to create a coupled array, which was then patched onto the collar of a commercial three-quarter zip jacket. The observed power output from a six-leg array while worn by a healthy person at room temperature (ΔT = 15 °C) was 2 µW, which is the highest value currently reported for a polymer thermoelectric device measured at room temperature.

Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) were synthesized and incorporated with polyethylenedioxythiophene:poly(4-styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS), Ag  nanowires (AgNWs) to form a composite that can be used for enhancement of relative humidity (RH%) sensing. The composite films contained bulk heterojunctions of AgNW/GQD and AgNW/PEDOT:PSS. The sensors made from the composites responded well to relative humidity in a range from 10% to 50% at room temperature. With  an AgNWs content ranging from 0.2 wt.% to 0.4 wt.%  and 0.6 wt.%, the sensitivity of the relative humidity sensing devices based on AgNWs-doped GQDs+PEDOT:PSS composites was increased from 5.5% to 6.5 % and 15.2 %, respectively. The response time of the composite sensors was much improved due to AgNWs doping in the composites. For the 0.6 wt.% AgNWs-doped GQDs+PEDOT:PSS films, the best value of the recovery time was found to be of 30 s.

This paper explores the use of rubbing for alleviating the problem of lost electrical conductivity, which is typically caused by the use of nonconductive polymers to improve the substrate adhesion and surface roughness of metal nanowire networks.
