Traditional fibrous warmth retention materials suffer from limited performance improvement due to their micrometer-scale diameter and fail meet the requirements of lightweight yet high-efficiency cold protection in extreme environments. Herein, we present a novel, facile, ecofriendly strategy fabricate lightweight, mechanically robust nanofibrous sponge with integrated solar-driven active heating low-temperature superinsulation. The high-porosity structure is achieved through urea-induced phase separation during ambient electrospinning, which overcomes energy-intensive unsafe high-humidity processing challenges. Simultaneous situ incorporation silicon carbide nanoparticles photothermal properties enables solar-activated heat generation. This realizes dual functionalities: ultralow thermal conductivity (27.31 mW m-1 K-1) for superinsulation rapid solar (50.1 °C temperature rise within 10 min under simulated sunlight), combined exceptional attributes including property (volume density 3.8 mg cm-3), hydrophobicity (water contact angle = 128°), antifouling behavior, stable mechanical performance. Its superior environments (e.g., high-altitude polar regions) medical applications establishes new paradigm advanced passive/active management functionalities.

Intelligent and electronic textile materials for adaptive apparel: Innovations, functional design, and future directions

Journal of Industrial Textiles, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 55

Опубликована: Май 1, 2025

The increasing demand for adaptive apparel solutions tailored to the needs of aging population and individuals with disabilities is a key driver in advancement intelligent electronic textiles (e-textiles). These sophisticated materials integrate sensing, actuation, information processing, artificial intelligence create dynamically that caters individual human needs. Unlike simple, passive apparel, e-textiles enable real-time physiological monitoring, facilitate thermoregulation, enhance mobility, support communication. This review provides comprehensive systematic analysis emerging technologies e-textile designs, presented through functional approach apparel. Illustrative applications include apparel-based textile sensors electrocardiogram (ECG) actuated movement mobility assistance, smart capables translating sign language into spoken language. Furthermore, identifies machine learning can be integrated directly onto wearable devices predict future fall events deliver personalized health feedback. paper also addresses critical challenges manufacturing design e-textiles, such as ensuring comfort, washability, durability, data privacy, cost-effectiveness, strong focus on user-centered design, ensure they withstand rigors daily use. Besides, this underscores importance multidisciplinary research synergistically combines textiles, electronics, human-centered principles develop ethical environmentally responsible products. Finally, aims guide creation inclusive empower vulnerable populations, alleviate caregiver burdens, promote social integration, ultimately contribute equitable disability.

Development of user interaction(UI)-based electrical heated clothing incorporating knitted jacquard pattern for the elderly

Journal of Industrial Textiles, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 54

Опубликована: Янв. 1, 2024

Electrical heated clothing (EHC) is a revolutionary concept that combines garment with electrical technology to create garments capable of actively regulating and providing warmth the wearer, especially for elderly. To develop an EHC elderly both aesthetics functionality, technique knitted Jacquard employed fabrics Bluetooth module applied realize user interaction (UI) design. Firstly, 16 different were fabricated by choosing silver-coated yarns patterns. The heating temperatures simulated, actual performance was observed through infrared thermal image. Suitable materials patterns selected produce EHC. Secondly, in order meet demands elderly, prototype developed combining characteristics design UI After PCBA, temperature time can be adjusted WeChat mini-program on mobile phone. It has been verified meets requirements. This study serve as excellent guide advancement wearables.
