• Description:
  This paper describes innovative work in the manufacturing of carbon nanotube (CNT) fabric and tape and how these materials can be used in textiles and fashion apparel. The field of CNT fabric is new and this article discusses the potential commercial impact of CNT fabric, the manufacturing barriers that currently exist, and provides suggestions to push the field towards large scale commercialization. Areas under investigation for commercialization of CNT fabric, tape and yarn include flexible heaters, filter membranes, smart textiles, electrical machines, hybrid fabric, and biomedical wire.
