  1. Materials To Use For Wearable Interface 3 P19001

  2. What Materials Do We Need? We need 3 different types of materials. These are metals, plastic, and possibly some sort of cloth. All materials need to be biocompatible (no iteration), low cost, and breathable.

  3. Polyethylene Terephthalate • High-Density Polyethylene • Low-Density Polyethylene What type of plastic to use?

  4. Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET, PETE) • Most common thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyester family • Used in fibres for clothing, containers for liquids and foods, thermoforming for manufacturing, and in combination with glass fibre for engineering resins • Recyclable • Low Cost

  5. High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE) • Most common used in the production of bottles, piping, geomembranes and plastic lumber. • Harder material than PET, similar to comparing Milk Jugs to Plastic Bottles • Greater tensile strength than Low Density Polyethylene • Not very recyclable

  6. Low-Density Polyethylene • Most common in playground slides, plastic wraps, shoes, tote bags • Very good flexibility • Heavy resistant to corrosion • Recyclable

  7. The Best Option (Still up for debate) High-Density Polyethylene

  8. Stainless steel • Titanium alloys • Aluminum What type of metal to use? Following Shown In Order Of Price!

  9. Aluminum • Extremely light • Cheaper • Less flashy • Biocompatible • $

  10. Stainless steel • Heavier than aluminum • More expensive but cost effective • More durable • Usually less material is needed so, slightly thinner • Fingerprints show easily on the stainless steel • Can not be biocompatible in some cases • $$

  11. Titanium Alloy • Lighter than both aluminum and stainless steel • Non corrosive and ductile material • Cause NO allergic reactions as stainless steel can sometimes do • Twice as strong as stainless steel yet weighs half as much • $$$

  12. The Best Option (Although since it is expensive you might want to use another material) Titanium Alloy OR Aluminum

  13. ForCloth Material What it needs to be? Breathable Light Low Cost Will go more in depth with this if we do decide to use cloth in our design

  14. QuickMaterial Design Concept

  15. What to do next? As a group we have to decide if we are going to use some sort of cloth. Additionally, pick from the 6 possible options we have here!
