Özet
<p>Over the last years, the use of eco-friendly and human skin-friendly regular textile materials has been of high interest in building textile-based triboelectric generators (TEGs). However, although the triboelectricity phenomenon can be commonly experienced when simply removing a cloth, most of the research applies considerable force loads between the triboelectric surfaces, a condition that is not met on garments. In this study, the primary objective was to compare the triboelectric potentials of six selected textile samples of identical knitting patterns, but different materials under a number of repeated cycles of contact, sliding, and separation, as they would behave if they were parts of a TEG on a garment under real usage conditions. All the sample combinations provided firmly different voltage outputs following exponential increases until they reached different plateaus of saturation. This work wishes to help toward the use of ordinary, eco-friendly, and human skin-friendly textile materials as options for wearable TEGs on garments</p>
