The continuous production of textile muscle fibres made by continuous electropolymerisation of polypyrrole (PPy) onto multifilaments coated with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and of surface ionofibres made by UV coating ionogels on commercial multifilaments enables the manufacturing of textile muscles. Here, plain woven fabrics combining textile muscle fibres as warp threads and ionofibres as weft threads are investigated. This study aims to understand the translation of the contractile properties of textile muscle fibres in aqueous sodium dodecylbenzenesulphonate (NaDBS) to the behaviour of the fibres in such woven fabrics. Indeed, in a plain weave, the contact of the textile muscle fibres with an ion source/sink is only done at the interlacings with the ionofibres. Compared to crude fabric coatings, this contribution opens up to a new generation of textile muscles.
