摘要

自供能智能服饰需要兼顾柔性穿戴、持续供能、信号感知、水洗耐久和皮肤安全。聚合物热电材料可利用人体与环境之间的低品位温差产生电能或自供能传感信号，具有低热导率、柔韧性好、可溶液加工和易于织物集成等优势。本文围绕聚合物热电材料在自供能智能服饰中的应用，综述了p型聚(3

4-乙烯二氧噻吩):聚苯乙烯磺酸盐(PEDOT:PSS)、聚合物/碳基复合体系、n型聚合物、聚合物多重异质结、印刷成型、热电纤维和三维织物热流管理等研究进展。重点分析了多胺去掺杂、界面能量过滤、n型聚苯并二呋喃二酮(PBFDO)缺陷抑制、界面热散射和纳米黏结剂印刷等关键机制。进一步结合低温差输出、响应时间、识别精度、机械循环、水洗耐久、汗液稳定性和生物相容性等指标，指出聚合物热电服饰评价可由功率因子(PF)或无量纲热电优值(ZT)等单一材料指标转向“材料参数–器件输出–穿戴可靠性”的综合评价体系。未来研究需加强热–电输运解耦、n型聚合物稳定化、三维热流管理和标准化可靠性测试，以推动聚合物热电材料在自供能智能服饰中的实际应用。

Abstract

Self-powered smart clothing requires conformable wearability

continuous energy harvesting

signal sensing

wash durability

and skin-contact safety. Polymer thermoelectric materials can convert the low-grade temperature difference between the human body and the environment into electrical energy or self-powered sensing signals. Their low thermal conductivity

mechanical flexibility

solution processability

and textile compatibility render them promising candidates for garment-integrated energy harvesters and passive sensors. This review summarizes recent progress in p-type poly(3

4-ethylenedioxythiophene): poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) systems

polymer/carbon composites

n-type polymers

polymeric multi-heterojunctions

printed thermoelectrics

thermoelectric fibers

and three-dimensional textile-based heat-flow management

with an emphasis on key mechanisms

including polyamine-induced dedoping

interfacial energy filtering

defect suppression in n-type poly(benzodifurandione) (PBFDO) polymers

interfacial thermal scattering

and nanobinder-assisted printing. By comparing the low-temperature-gradient output

response time

recognition accuracy

mechanical cycling

wash durability

sweat stability

and biocompatibility

this review emphasizes that polymer thermoelectric smart clothing should be evaluated using an integrated “material parameter–device output–wearable reliability” framework rather than by power factor (PF) dimensionless thermoelectric figure of merit (ZT) alone. Future studies should focus on thermal-electrical transport decoupling

n-type polymer stability

three-dimensional heat-flow management

and standardized reliability testing to promote practical applications in self-powered smart clothing systems.
