Abstract Solar‐driven interfacial water evaporation holds a broad application prospect in the domain of seawater desalination. However, traditional desalination technology is facing challenge large‐scale preparation and desalting performance. Herein, based on easy processing low cost advantages carbon‐based solar‐thermal materials, study proposes novel strategy to use surfactant Pluronic F127 encapsulate carbon black form size‐stable “core–shell” nanomicelle. Then, evaporator cross‐linked by nanomicelle polyvinyl alcohol constructed with surface patterned design inspired honeycomb structures, which proved that has excellent salt resistance Marangoni effect. Furthermore, it can be used generate electricity realize integration outdoor evaporating generation. The solar reach an rate 2.19 kg m −2 h −1 under one sunlight irradiation. area patterning 132 cm 2 (22 × 6 cm) output voltage natural light up 561 mV. Significantly, maintain persistent without accumulation during for 10 days. This work provides valuable perspective industrialization high‐performance evaporators.

Abstract Hydrogel‐based solar evaporators are widely concerned because of their excellent evaporation performance due to the “water activation” effect by reducing enthalpy. However, current challenge is trade‐off between a high rate and salt tolerance. Here, 3D chitosan‐based hydrogel evaporator with directional vertical channel structure using one‐pot in situ strategy freezing method, innovatively designed. Owing its structure, ions can quickly return, while steam overflow without obstruction, allowing achieve exceptional resistance, simultaneously. Consequently, an extremely salt‐resistant system achieved, even saturated brine (salinity 26.47 wt.%), no crystals accumulating after continuous over 8 h 2.83 kg m −2 −1 under one sun illumination. This best reported hydrogel‐based system. With record‐high this work improves practicality for high‐salinity desalination.
