Electric Textiles And Nanotechnology: The Science Of Our Apparels

By: dianneCooper Home | News-and-Society | Society-Events


In the course in the late 1800’s, the world has been gifted with an inventor who has been keen at creating rather atypical clothes. It was during this time that the man named George Scott has been delivering to the dubious world apparels that are integrated with electromagnetic mechanisms. Unfortunately for him though, people recognized him from a sort of a quack and shoo his inventions away from the conventional. He has advertised undergarments that supposedly promote blood circulation thereby stimulating organic action. This systemic organic flow, as he assert, assists good digestion. Though he finds ally with other scientific men, he has not won the favor of the noblemen and rest of the community.

Two centuries had passed; it seems that the aspirations and workings of Scott have materialized through a special study from which his concepts can be used in modern clothing and uniforms to be used by the military and limited civilians. The current invention is somewhat has resemblance to that of Scott’s but with slight difference in terms of specific function. For example, there are electronic devices that are integrated to dresses that provide continues monitoring of the heartbeat. The military uniforms uses nanotechnology in order to make uniforms that has the capacity to transmit and receive signals limiting their use of long antenna for communications.

In Bogota, Colombia, a man named Miguel Caballero somehow followed footsteps with Scott except that the former is not interested with electric integrated suits but corporate uniforms capable of stopping a bullet. For his part, he has gained the attention of many renowned leaders and celebrities for his invention. He has not disclosed the material he use for his apparels but it seems that he has been using textiles that are product of nanotechnology because of its lightweight feature and strong fiber structure. Of his notable clients the most controversial are the Presidents Hugo Chavez of Venezuela and Barack Obama of the United States.

As this study advances the main question as to why we use clothes somehow also evolves. We have already answered it †we use dress up for comfort and protection. But the question is still there it’s just that no longer a why question but a how one. How can we be able to improve our apparels to further protect us or give us comfort more than the conventional? Advertisements from different manufacturers are already aired claiming that their product has the capacity to restrict odors as with the case of modern socks. There are also modern garments that uses nanotech to promote self cleaning features.

NASA has their own versions of textiles but instead of using it commercially, scientists are keeping it as of the moment for the exclusive use of the astronauts for their space suits. The history of the advanced NASA space suits somehow can be traced back to the 60’s when the first astronaut landed on moon. Studies showed that the dust from the moon has damaged space suits and because of this, astronauts cannot stay longer on the surface of the moon. Scientists patterned the new space suits textiles from the features of a water lily leaf.

The progression of the innovation is unstoppable and as long as we have the materials to create, our clothes will somehow advance to our own benefits.
