Effect of Pretreatment on the Electrical Properties of Bismuth Ferrite/PVDF Deposited on Cotton Knitted Fabric

Abstract

Bismuth Ferrite (BiFeO₃) is a piezoelectric material renowned for its application in sensors and nanogenerators. Nevertheless, more research has yet to explore the integration of BiFeO3 into the textile fabric to create conductive fabric. Furthermore, there are fewer studies evaluating pretreatment's impact on the electrical properties, deposition process, and durability of the BiFeO3/PVDF treatment on traditional knitted cotton fabric. The objectives of the study are to evaluate the effect of pre-treatment on the electrical properties and treatment durability of Bismuth Ferrite/PVDF deposition on cotton knitted fabric.
