Sulfonation of Polyethylene Improves Functionality for Fabricating Technical Textiles

Incorporating conductive nanoﬁbers into a polymer composite, so that it carries electrical signals and possesses hydrophilic properties similar to nylon and polyester, is a promising and potentially economically viable approach to new textiles. The matrix material will still constitute more than 90%...
