Material architecture

From carbon materials to a connected heating network

The supplied technical documentation describes carbon nanotubes as the conductive framework and graphene as a reinforcing conductive component. Applied to a textile substrate, the composite creates broad surface heating while preserving a soft hand.

01

Conductive framework

CNT pathways establish the primary electrical network across the textile heating area.

02

Graphene reinforcement

Graphene contributes conductive contact points within the composite network.

03

Textile interface

The active layer is engineered around flexibility, breathability and integration into soft goods.

04

Scalable preparation

The platform is designed for repeatable coating and roll-to-roll production workflows.

Heterostructured conductive network

A distributed heating surface, not a single hot wire.

The supplied material documentation describes a hybrid CNT and graphene network applied to a textile carrier. CNT pathways provide the conductive framework while graphene-like contact surfaces reinforce the network, supporting broad-area heat and repeated flexing.

Distributed conductionCurrent is spread across a composite network rather than concentrated in one rigid trace.
Textile-compatible formThe heater remains thin and conformable enough to follow garments, cushions and shaped surfaces.
Designed heat zonesResistance, geometry and electrode placement are configured around the useful contact area.
Closed-loop systemEmbedded sensing and controller logic turn the material into a controlled product architecture.

Visual is an engineering illustration. Final layer stack, electrode design and performance are confirmed for each customised product.

Current engineered platforms

From heating textile to a complete controlled system

The latest product-design boards show how THERMOVEX combines different material series, voltage platforms, controllers and large-area control architectures for real OEM and ODM programs.

Series figures shown above are reference values from the supplied engineering boards. Final voltage, current, resistance, temperature, active area, controller logic and validation scope are confirmed for each customised product.

Engineering evaluation

Four questions behind a useful flexible heater

Performance depends on more than peak temperature. The submitted comparison evaluates physical integration, heated coverage, surface consistency and stability after washing.

010.301 mm

Flexibility & thickness

The submitted comparison sample combines a CNT and graphene heating element with a polyester textile construction designed to remain soft and low-profile.

0268.57%

Active heating area

Active area was calculated as the observed heating area divided by the complete heater area. The documented THERMOVEX reference sample measured 68.57%.

03Multi-point

Thermal uniformity

Four surface points were recorded under a 0.5 cm flame-retardant cotton cover on 1 cm insulation, with the curve spread used to assess uniformity.

Wash stability

The submitted method references GB/T 13769-2009 and GB/T 8629-2017, using ECE detergent, the 4N program, hang drying and resistance tracking.

Soft S platform

Broad, flexible heat for products that need to move

Soft S is the textile heating configuration described in the supplied product deck. It is designed for large-area, low-profile integration where hand feel and repeated flexing matter.

Product integration rules

Design the heater and the product pattern together.

A flexible heater is only useful when its active area, sewing margin, sensor, leads and power access all survive the way the finished product is worn, folded, washed and serviced.

01

Heating zone

Keep the active surface aligned with the real contact area and clear of folds, pressure points and hard trims.

02

Sewing zone

Pattern margins are reserved for stitching so the conductive network and current collectors remain protected.

03

Sensor position

The temperature sensor is placed where it represents the operating surface, not simply the controller output.

04

Connection path

Leads, connectors and power pockets are routed around flex, moisture, abrasion and user-access requirements.

Temperature control

Closed-loop control—not just power levels

THERMOVEX combines embedded temperature sensing, regulated output and protection logic. Standalone and connected controllers can be selected around the finished product.

2Regulate
3Protect
01

High-precision NTC

Temperature sensing inside the heating system supports closed-loop control instead of relying on power level alone.

02

PWM output

Regulated PWM output helps hold the selected temperature more consistently as operating conditions change.

03

Four temperature levels

Documented controller configurations cover four closed-loop levels across approximately 37–57°C with color indication.

04

Electrical protection

Open-circuit, short-circuit, overcurrent and overtemperature protection are built into the submitted control architecture.

05

Timed safety

The supplied design defines a safe temperature ceiling and enters sleep after three hours of continuous heating.

06

Connected options

Bluetooth, app or mini-program control, timers, step-count expansion and garment-removal detection can be configured by project.

Safety by architecture

Protection at the material, sensor and control layers

Product safety is configuration-specific. The supplied system architecture layers sensing, electrical protection, thermal limits and time-based shutoff before final-product validation.

01

Surface heating

Broad heating reduces reliance on isolated high-temperature lines.

02

Temperature sensing

High-precision thermistor feedback monitors the operating surface.

03

Fault protection

Open circuit, short circuit, overcurrent and overtemperature logic.
