These textiles according to an April 24, 2023 news item on SpaceDaily do a little more than fight off bacteria (as impressive as that is),
Scientists from around the world have developed a simple metallic coating treatment for clothing or wearable textiles which can repair itself, repel dangerous bacteria from the wearer and even monitor a person’s electrocardiogram (ECG) heart signals.
Researchers from North Carolina State University [US], Flinders University [Australia] and South Korea [Sungkyunkwan University (SKKU] say the conductive circuits created by liquid metal (LM) particles can transform wearable electronics and open doors for further development of human-machine interfaces, including soft robotics and health monitoring systems.
