Wearing a compression garment (CG) can effectively prevent and treat hypertrophic scars (HS), but the surface of CG is prone to bacterial growth. Therefore, it is particularly important to carry out antibacterial finishing on compression garment fabric (CGF). In order to achieve the purpose of synergistic antibacterial action, improving bacteriostatic rate, and enhancing biological safety, this study prepared a composite material of MXene (Ti3C2Tx), chitosan, and amino silane coupling agent (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) and its antibacterial CGF. The binding mechanism between the antibacterial composite material and the CGF was explored, and the bacteriostatic rates, wearing properties, and wash fastness of the antibacterial CGF were studied. Results showed that Ti3C2Tx, chitosan, and APTES were covalently bonded to the CGF, achieving synergistic antibacterial effects. The antibacterial CGF without washing showed a bacteriostatic rate of 99.9% against both Gram-negative bacteria Esherichia coli (E. coli, AATCC 6538) and Gram-positive bacteria Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus, AATCC 25922), with washing fastness reaching grade AA. Additionally, the comfort of the antibacterial finishing fabric was affected to a certain extent in terms of flexural rigidity and air permeability, but overall, the wearability of the antibacterial CGF also met the daily wearing needs of patients.

Inspired by the intrinsically flame-retardant alginate fiber, a novel eco-friendly, biomass-based flame retardant was developed to endow lyocell fabrics with excellent flame-retardant properties by using bio-material glycine, aspartic acid as raw materials. Furthermore, glycine and aspartic acid were converted into sodium carboxylate (glycine-Na and aspartate-Na), respectively. Then, lyocell fabric was respectively modified by glycine-Na and aspartic acid-Na to prepare flame retardant lyocell fabric (G-lyocell-Na and A-lyocell-Na). The combustion test result showed that the modified fabrics exhibited self-extinguishing characteristics and high char-forming ability. In addition, compared to the control sample, the peak of heat release rate (PHRR) of G-lyocell-Na and A-lyocell-Na reduced by 36.5% and 49.9%. TG-IR and Raman spectra results indicated that both the condensed and gas phase played the flame retardant role. The electron withdrawing effect of the Na + reduced the activation energy, promoted the pyran ring-opening reaction and reduced the decomposition temperature. Therefore, the flame retardant lyocell fabric decomposed and formed more char residue containing Na 2 CO 3 . The expanded char layer formed during combustion could effectively block the release of heat and the overflow of combustible gases, so that the modified lyocell fabric showed highly flame-retardant efficiency. In this work, a novel preparation strategy that can endow lyocell fabric with good flame retardant properties without traditional flame retardant elements such as P, Cl and Br was proposed, which was green, environment-friendly and in line with sustainable development.

An easy care of silk fabrics is realized by crosslinking a thermo-responsive copolymer film onto its surface. The thermo-responsive copolymer poly( N -isopropylacrylamide- co -oligo[ethylene glycol] methyl ether methacrylate- co -ethylene glycol methacrylate), abbreviated as P(NM- co -OA 300 - co -EA 360 ), is synthesized by sequential atom transfer radical polymerization. By applying 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylic acid as crosslinker, the thermo-responsive P(NM- co -OA 300 - co -EA 360 ) film can be immobilized onto the silk fabrics. The transition temperature (TT) of the P(NM- co -OA 300 - co -EA 360 ) film crosslinked on silk fabrics is around 46 °C. The reversible transition behavior can effectively reduce the attachment between lipophilic stains and P(NM- co -OA 300 - co -EA 360 ) film, inducing a high efficiency of stain removal. Simply rinsing with deionized water at 25 °C (below its TT) for 30 s, 60% of stains can be removed. Moreover, the crosslinked P(NM- co -OA 300 - co -EA 360 ) film turns hydrophobic during outdoor activities or drying. Thus, the repelled water molecules can be easily evaporated from the silk fabrics and the drying process is 25% faster than that without crosslinked P(NM- co -OA 300 - co -EA 360 ) film. Based on the excellent performance of stain removal and quick drying, the silk fabrics crosslinked with thermo-responsive copolymer film can be broadly used to design silk-based costumes for daily use.

To obtain a superhydrophobic surface, SiO2nanoparticles are deposited on the surface of silk fabric (SF) by Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapor Deposition (PECVD) to form a hierarchical roughness structure. In addition, a durable superhydrophobic SiO2@silk fabric was further prepared by hexamethyldisilazane (HMDS) modification. Compared with bare silk, the surfaces of the SiO2@silk fabric exhibit higher surface roughness and excellent superhydrophobic activity, with a contact angle (CA) of ~152°. The excellent UV resistance of SiO2@silk fabric was confirmed with high UV protection factor (UPF) values and a low UV transmittance. Moreover, both the laundering durability and chemical stability of the SiO2@silk fabric were improved. Overall, this method is recognized as a promising approach to produce high-end fabric development. It can also guide the design of multifunctional fiber materials in the future.Keywords:silk fabric;superhydrophobic coating;UV resistant;durability;HMDS

This study aims to explore the essential functional requirements associated with controlling the proliferation of microbes in the domain of textiles used in public health areas. Herein, three antimicrobial agents, specifically iodopropylbutylcarbamate (IPBC), 1-hydroxypyridine-2-thioketone zinc (ZPT), and 2-octyl-3-isothiazolinone (OIT), were chosen for fabric finishing based on their notable effectiveness, minimal toxicity, cost-efficiency, and chemical stability. Utilizing Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) and Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) as representative bacterial strains, the Minimum Inhibitory Concentration (MIC 50 ) of individual and combined antimicrobial agents was measured, and their antimicrobial effectiveness was rigorously evaluated. Concurrently, the antimicrobial effectiveness, whiteness, and mechanical durability of the fabric following antimicrobial treatment were thoroughly examined. The results demonstrate that some combinations of the three antimicrobial agents elicit additive effects on both S. aureus and E. coli . Notably, at an equivalent ratio of IPBC, ZPT, and OIT and a total concentration of 0.2 wt. %, the inhibition rates against both bacterial strains surpass 99%. Upon application to nylon fabric, the treated material demonstrates significant antimicrobial properties, with minimal reduction observed in the whiteness and tensile strength of the treated nylon. This study provides practicable strategies relevant to the production of textiles endowed with antimicrobial properties.

Developing efficient and durable functional fabrics using natural plant-derived polyphenols is environmentally friendly. Gallic acid (GA), a widely available natural polyphenol, has been extensively used for functional materials modification due to its cost-effectiveness and high reactivity. In this work, a combination of gallic acid, polyethyleneimine (PEI) and metal ions was employed to prepare flame-retardant silk fabrics through a simple impregnation-drying method. The silk fabrics modified with different metal ions (Fe 2+ , Fe 3+ , Al 3+ and Ti 4+ ) achieved self-extinguishing properties in vertical combustion tests with damaged char lengths of 9.2, 8.3, 9.3, and 8.2 cm and limiting oxygen index values of 29.8%, 30.2%, 27.4%, and 33.0%, respectively. The damaged char length of Fe 3+ -treated silk remained below 15 cm even after 50 washing cycles. The total heat release rate (THR) and peak heat release rate (pHRR) of all four silk fabrics modified with metal ions were significantly reduced in cone calorimetry tests. Concurrently, the potential flame retardant mechanisms were postulated based on the analysis of combustion products from the samples in both gaseous and condensed phases. Furthermore, the Fe 3+ -treated silk demonstrated excellent antibacterial properties. This simple approach to preparing functionalized silk fabrics provides a novel pathway for developing advanced and durable silk textiles.

Silk fabric (SF) is a high-end textile frequently utilized in summer apparel. However, its ultraviolet absorption reduces the solar energy reflection, and the inherent hydrophilicity impedes effective sweat evaporation, thereby significantly compromising thermal-moisture comfort. Herein, we fabricated a multifunctional Janus SF with rapid heat dissipation, unidirectional moisture conduction and radiative cooling capabilities through a feasible two-step process. Briefly, hydrophilic Al 2 O 3 nanoparticles were covalently anchored on the outer side (A-side) of Janus SF, whereas a hydrophobic boron nitride (BN) nanosheet-doped layer was fabricated on the inner side (B-side) via polycondensation reaction. The optimized Janus SF demonstrated exceptional solar reflectivity (93.62 %) and infrared emissivity (92.08 %), alongside enhanced thermal conductivities (1.45 W/K/m in-plane and 0.182 W/K/m through-plane). Additionally, the wettability gradient between the hydrophilic A-side and hydrophobic B-side provided a robust driving force for moisture transport, endowing Janus SF with a distinguished unidirectional transportation index of 809.43 % and a satisfactory water evaporation rate of 88.49 g/(m 2 ·h), thereby ensuring prolonged thermal-moisture comfort. Notably, this Janus fabric displayed remarkable outdoor practical cooling effect (∼5.6 °C) compared to bare skin, accompanying with good biocompatibility and outstanding wearability. Overall, such durable, scalable and multifunctional Janus SF provides innovative inspiration for designing next-generation passive cooling fabrics.

Highly hydrophobic silk fabric surfaces were successfully fabricated using a simple one-step atomic layer deposition (ALD) process. The surface morphology , chemical composition , and structure of bare silk fabric and silk fabrics coated with titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) subjected to 800 and 1600 ALD cycles were measured using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning probe microscopy (SPM). The surface wettability of the silk fabrics was evaluated by determining their static water contact angles (WCAs) and roll-off angles. The results suggest that the good hydrophilicity of the surfaces of bare silk fabrics can be changed to high hydrophobicity by the application of TiO 2 nanoparticles to their surfaces using ALD. The high hydrophobicity achieved can be attributed to the increase in roughness of the silk fabric surface. The laundering durability of TiO 2 -coated silk fabrics is greatly improved by increasing the thickness of the ALD TiO 2 films.

Functionalized knitted fabric, as a kind of flexible, wearable, and waterproof material capable of conductivity, sensitivity and outstanding hydrophobicity, is valuable for multi-field applications. Herein, the reduced graphene oxide (RGO)-coated knitted fabric (polyester/spandex blended) is prepared, which involves the use of graphite oxide (GO) by modified Hummers method and in-situ chemical reduction with hydrazine hydrate. The treated fabric exhibits a high electrical conductivity (202.09 S/cm) and an outstanding hydrophobicity (140°). The outstanding hydrophobicity is associated with the morphology of the fabric and fiber with reference to pseudo-infiltration. These properties can withstand repeated bending and washing without serious deterioration, maintaining good electrical conductivity (35.70 S/cm) and contact angle (119.39°) after eight standard washing cycles. The material, which has RGO architecture and continuous loop mesh structure, can find wide use in smart garment applications.

The development of modern infrared detection technology has increased the possibility that military targets will be identified. Therefore, the task of protecting these targets is urgent extremely. The infrared stealth materials should be versatile to achieve the performance requirements of different applications and should be sustainable to achieve environmental friendliness. In order to solve this problem, an antimony doped tin oxide/silver/bamboo fibers (ATO-Ag-BFs) composite bamboo fabrics with multi-functional properties including infrared protection and antibacterial and hydrophobic properties were developed by the combination of ATO loading, chemical deposition, and hot press process. The ATO-Ag-BFs fabrics possessed plasmon resonance absorption properties of near-infrared light, which was attributed to the formation of Schottky junction by direct contact between Ag and ATO nanoparticles. The resulting ATO-Ag-BFs shows the infrared emissivity as low as 0.68 in the 8–14 μm thermal imaging band, which allowed the target to be blended adequately into environmental background. In addition, ATO-Ag-BFs treated with n-hexadecyl mercaptan exhibited remarkable hydrophobic properties with a water contact angle (WCA) of 147.7° compared to the non-hydrophobic treated ATO-Ag-BFs, which increased by 273.9%. Especially, the combination of Ag and ATO nanoparticles endowed bamboo fiber fabrics with outstanding antibacterial properties, with 100% inhibition of both Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) and Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ). Overall, the multi-functional ATO-Ag-BFs based on bamboo fibers developed in this study can be applied in the field of wearable infrared and thermal radiation shielding to meet the requirements for concealment in harsh environments, proving that it is a tremendous potential candidate for infrared stealth materials.

Silk fabrics have poor resistance to ultraviolet (UV) light and to wrinkles. To improve these properties, we propose a finishing method of coating the silk fabric surface with nano-silica (nano-SiO2). The results show that the UV protective factor (UPF) value could reach a maximum of 84.52 after finishing in 10 g/L nano-SiO2 and 20 g/L silane coupling agent (KH570) solution at 80℃. Moreover, the treated silk fabrics showed improved wrinkle resistance and hydrophobicity. The surface morphology and crosslink action of the treated silk fabrics were characterized by scanning electron microscope, energy dispersive spectrometer and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, which proved that nano-SiO2 particles were grafted on to the silk fabric. There was no apparent difference in color between untreated and treated silk fabrics. Thermal stability and cytotoxicity tests showed that the treated silk fabrics had good thermostability and cytocompatibility. The UPF value could be maintained at 77.31 after washing 20 times, which demonstrated that the treated silk fabrics had laundry resistance. Multifunctional silk fabrics with good hydrophobic properties and excellent UV and wrinkle resistance were developed, showing good prospects for their application in self-cleaning, protective and non-ironing clothes.

To obtain a hydrophobic surface, TiO2 coatings are deposited on the surface of silk fabric using atomic layer deposition (ALD) to realize a hierarchical roughness structure. The surface morphology and topography, structure, and wettability properties of bare silk fabric and TiO2-coated silk fabrics thus prepared are evaluated using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), scanning probe microscope (SPM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), static water contact angles (WCAs), and roll-off angles, respectively. The surfaces of the silk fabrics with the TiO2 coatings exhibit higher surface roughnesses compared with those of the bare silk fabric. Importantly, the hydrophobic and laundering durability properties of the TiO2-coated silk fabrics are largely improved by increasing the thickness of the ALD TiO2 coating. Meanwhile, the ALD process has a litter effect on the service performance of silk fabric. Overall, TiO2 coating using an ALD process is recognized as a promising approach to produce hydrophobic surfaces for elastic materials.
