How are engineers creating clothing that can charge your cell phone. Explain the science behind their innovation.

By the use of carbon nanotubes as the clothing material.

Explanation:

Carbon nanotubes is a technology designed by engineers that could make charging of the cell of a phone possible. It has some some required properties like it is strong, conductive and heat-resistant which are suitable for the purpose.

This technology which involves a progressive dipping of a pure cotton material into nafion polymer, then in a chemical solution of carbon nanotubes and finally in polystyrene until it becomes saturated and have a conductive property. The conductive cotton can be used to make such cloths which becomes conductive and produces some electromagnetic waves when there is a contact with sweat or fluid from the body. The waves generated can be used to charge a cell phone through radiation interaction.

i don't understand. explain it clearly
