Low-power textile-integrated electroosmosis pump for active moisture and sweat management
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: , requiring only 0.79 W of power, marking a substantial advancement in moisture permeability performance compared to previous membrane-based electroosmotic pumps. Moreover, beyond driving liquid flow, our study demonstrates the capability of managing moisture and humidity by effectively transporting water vapor. This work represents a promising step forward in the development of efficient, low-power solutions for textile-integrated moisture management systems.
