Today's KNOWLEDGE Share:Graphene Based wearable garment for the army

Today's KNOWLEDGE Share:


“At the time, Neel was looking for someone to develop a wearable garment for the armed forces using graphene.


In October 2019, Khushboo Patel, an engineering graduate, collaborated with Neel Panchal, co-founder of graphene manufacturing startup LHP Nanotechnologies, to develop a wearable graphene-based garment for the armed forces.


Using Khushboo’s prior experience and Neel’s expertise in graphene manufacturing, they began working on the concept. Graphene’s unique properties, including flexibility and efficient thermal regulation, were essential for the project’s success.


Khushboo and Neel Panchal did not have a manufacturing space to conduct the experiments and thus decided to do so in their home kitchen. It took them close to 1,000 trials to finally achieve what they sought.


After a month of intensive specialised manufacturing processes for several critical components, the duo was ready with the proof of concept of the ‘heated winter jacket’ for Army personnel.


To overcome the challenge of maintaining the temperature, the duo integrated AI with software that would learn the wearer’s personal preferences in different settings within a short period and then begin to adjust to their comfortable temperature.


“The most crucial parameters were the efficiency of the jacket, ensuring a lightweight nature, longer operating time, durability, and flexibility. Every element had to be redesigned to withstand the harsh climes,” he adds.


However, the duo say that every constraint they faced along the way only kept them trying harder and coming up with more ideas.
