Weavable devices are devices in which fibers imparted with electronic functions are woven into cloth, such as clothing. By weaving two or more types of functional fibers into a single piece of cloth, we can achieve multifunctionality beyond existing wearable devices. For weavable devices, it is necessary to establish a metallization method for one-dimensional materials such as threads, rather than a two-dimensional metallization method for the entire fabric. In this study, we investigated electroless Ni-P plating on Nylon yarns to create Ni-P/Nylon composite fibers.
