Abstract
This study demonstrates the fabrication and practical utility of textile-based OLEDs with enhanced stability, mechanical durability, and washability. A multi-functional near-room-temperature encapsulation using a TiO₂ film and a hydrophobic polymer achieves a low water vapor transmission rate (WVTR), high flexibility, and waterproof properties. The resulting textile-based OLEDs maintain optoelectronic properties even after bending and water immersion, showcasing their potential for smart e-textiles.
