About

Moein Khakzad is a rising researcher at the forefront of smart textiles and advanced functional materials, with a particular focus on integrating piezoelectric polymers into wearable platforms. His most cited work, "Wash‐stable electrospun piezopolymer textiles" (2024), addresses a critical bottleneck in the field: the durability and washability of electronic textiles. By developing electrospun piezoelectric yarns that maintain their electromechanical performance after repeated laundering, Khakzad has advanced the practical viability of self-powered sensing and actuation directly embedded into fabric. This contribution bridges the gap between laboratory prototypes and real-world wearable applications, enabling textiles that can sense motion, pressure, or vibration without external power sources. Though early in his career, his work has already garnered attention for its potential to transform healthcare monitoring, soft robotics, and interactive garments. Khakzad’s research sits at the intersection of materials science, polymer engineering, and textile technology, promising to make “intelligent” fabrics a durable, everyday reality.
