johtosäikeiden
Johtosäikeet, often translated as "conductive threads" or "conductive yarns," are specialized textiles engineered to carry electrical current. These threads are typically made from metal filaments, such as copper or silver, which are then spun into yarn or woven into fabric. In some applications, non-metallic conductive materials like carbon nanotubes or conductive polymers are also used to create these threads. The primary function of johtosäikeet is to integrate electrical conductivity into flexible and wearable materials.
The development of johtosäikeet has enabled a new generation of smart textiles and e-textiles. These conductive
Applications for johtosäikeet span various industries. In the medical field, they are used in smart bandages
