  • Abstract
    Electrolessly Cu/Ni plated fabrics are favorable to be used as e-textiles owing to the excellent conductivity and the properties peculiar to fabrics. Nevertheless, durability is less ensured compared with Cu-based conductive lines. Therefore, we investigate the influence of abrasion and laundering on the electrical resistance of electrolessly Cu/Ni plated fabrics, and the effect of polyurethane sealing for the electrical durability.
