This research paper recommends an electrode construction and integration technique for dry silver-based textile electrodes capturing electromyographic (EMG) signals. Three integration methods with two different conductive textiles were compared using two analysis methods; analysis was also conducted before and after six washing cycles. Six wearable arm bands with each of the design parameter combinations were worn on the biceps brachii muscle to capture EMG signals from three users under a controlled task both before any washing of the bands occurred and after four washing cycles were completed. Additionally, impedance measurements over six frequency bands were recorded after each washing cycle. Textile electrodes made of Shieldex Techniktex P180B using an extended electrode integration method were found to perform best.
