This study explores the development of biocomposites and nanocomposite materials for UV protection and microbial resistance in clothing. Nanoscale UV-blocking agents enhance the protection of textiles against harmful ultraviolet radiation. Recent studies on composites such as ZnO/carboxymethyl chitosan, polyacrylonitrile with UV absorbers and TiO2 nanoparticles, and lignin-TiO composites have shown significant improvements in UV protection and some antibacterial activity. Techniques such as electrospinning, hydrothermal synthesis, and natural fibre welding were used to create these composites, focusing on ZnO and TiO2 nanoparticles for dual functionality.

文摘Inspired by the thermal stability mechanism of thermophilic protein,which presents ionic bonds that have better stability at higher temperatures,this paper proposes the introduction of electrostatic interactions by adding carboxyl-modified silica(C-SiO2),PAA,and CaCl_(2) to achieve higher viscosity over 25℃.The rheological behavior of C-SiO_(2)-based shear thickening fluid(CS-STF)was investigated at a temperature range of 25–55℃.Unlike SiO_(2)-based STF,which exhibits single-step thickening and a negative correlation between viscosity and temperature.As the C-SiO_(2) content was 41%(w/w)and the mass ratio of PAA:CaCl_(2):C-SiO_(2) was 3:1:10,the CS-STF displayed a double-thickening behavior,and the peak viscosity reached 1330 Pa·s at 35℃.From the yarn pull-out test,the inter-yarn force was significantly increased with the increasing CS-STF content.Treating UHMWPE fabrics with CS-STF improved the impact resistance effectively.In the blunt impact test,the U-CS fabrics with high CS-STF content(121.45 wt%)experienced penetration failure under high impact energy(18 J)due to stress concentration caused by the shear thickening behavior.The knife stabbing test demonstrated that U-CS fabrics with appropriate content(88.38 wt%)have the best stabbing resistance in various impact energies.Overall,this study proposed a high-performence STF showing double-thickening and enhancing shear-thickening behavior at a wide temperature range,the composite fabrics with the performance of resisting both the blunt and stab impact had broad application prospects in the field of personal protection.

文摘Surface modification of fabrics is an effective way to endow them with antifouling properties while still maintaining their key advantages such as comfort,softness and stretchability.Herein,an atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge(DBD)plasma method is demonstrated for the processing of silk fabrics using 1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane(PFDS)as the precursor.The results showed the successful grafting of PFDS groups onto the surface of silk fabrics without causing damage.Meanwhile,the gas temperature is rather low during the whole processing procedure,suggesting the non-equilibrium characteristics of DBD plasma.The influence on fabrics of the processing parameters(PFDS concentration,plasma treatment time and plasma discharge power)was systematically investigated.An optimum processing condition was determined to be a PFDS concentration of 8wt%,a plasma processing time of 40 s and a plasma power of 11.87 W.However,with prolonged plasma processing time or enhanced plasma power,the plasma-grafted PFDS films could be degraded.Further study revealed that plasma processing of silk fabrics with PFDS would lead to a change in their chemical composition and surface roughness.As a result,the surface energy of the fabrics was reduced,accompanied by improved water and oil repellency as well as enhanced antifouling performance.Besides,the plasma-grafted PFDS films also had good durability and stability.By extending the method to polyester and wool against different oil-/water-based stains,the DBD plasma surface modification technique demonstrated good versatility in improving the antifouling properties of fabrics.This work provides guidance for the surface modification of fabrics using DBD plasma to confer them with desirable functionalities.

文摘Wearable,flexible devices have garnered widespread attention in the realm of human motion and life activity detection.Currently,the development of simple,green,and easily scalable methods for fabricating strain sensors still presents significant challenges.In this study,we successfully modified the surface of reduced graphene oxide(rGO)with SnCuNiIn multi-component alloy nanoparticles(MCA NPs),with an average size of 13.29 nm,utilizing a green and facile microwave heating approach.Leveraging the SnCuNiIn MCA NPs/rGO powder,we formulated a conductive ink based on water and ethylene glycol,which,when screen-printed,yielded conductive patterns with a minimum resistivity of 4.366 mΩ·cm.Strain sensors produced using this ink demonstrate exceptional performance,demonstrating favorable resistance change rates during a single bending process that meets practical application requirements,and enduring 5000 bending cycles with a resistance change of less than 5%.These sensors exhibited a high gauge factor(GF_(max)=52.7)and outstanding cycling stability.Lastly,strain sensors are employed to monitor human normal life activities and motion states,showcasing significant potential for application in wearable electronic products.

文摘High magnetic protective fabrics with rare earth Nd doped Fe_(3)O_(4)nanoparticles were fabricated via a grafting method.The structure,crystal form,and elemental composition of nanoparticles were investigated by transmission electron microscopy,energy dispersive X-ray,X-ray powder diffraction,and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy.The obtained NdFe_(2)O_(4)nanoparticles show spherical shape with fine dispersion and reasonable element composition.However,they demonstrate fine superparamagnetic properties with a magnetic saturation value of 29.25 A·m^(2)/g and low coercivity of 1.902 mT through the vibrating sample magnetometry technique,which can be well developed in magnetic shielding protective applications.Then,the cotton fabrics with plain weave were finished by a proofing rapier loom as a carrier.The NdFe_(2)O_(4)nanoparticles underwent some appropriate surface modification and then were grafted onto the cotton fabrics by a bridge agent of N,N’-dissuccinimidyl carbonate.The morphology,structure,dispersion effect,and electromagnetic protective properties of the fabrics were observed through scanning electron microscopy,Fourier infrared spectroscopy,thermogravimetric analysisdifferential scanning calorimetry(TG-DSC),and a vector network analyzer.The reliable fabrics with grafting reaction on the interface are expected to have potential applications in the field of electromagnetic protection and biomedicine fields.

文摘The silk fabrics were matching dyed with three natural edible pigments(red rice red,ginger yellow and gardenia blue).By investigating the dyeing rates and lifting properties of these pigments,it was observed that their compatibilities were excellent in the dyeing process:dye dosage 2.5%(omf),mordant alum dosage 2.0%(omf),dyeing temperature 80℃and dyeing time 40 min.The silk fabrics dyed with secondary colors exhibited vibrant and vivid color owing to the remarkable lightness and chroma of ginger yellow.However,gardenia blue exhibited multiple absorption peaks in the visible light range,resulting in significantly lower lightness and chroma for the silk fabrics dyed with tertiary colors,thus making it suitable only for matte-colored fabrics with low chroma levels.In addition,the silk fabrics dyed with these three pigments had a color fastness that exceeded grade 3 in resistance to perspiration,soap washing and light exposure,indicating acceptable wearing properties.The dyeing process described in this research exhibited a wide range of potential applications in matching dyeing of protein-based textiles with natural colorants.
文摘Hyperledger Fabric是一个主流的联盟链平台,当面临多笔并发执行且相互关联的交易时,现有架构容易生成大量无效交易,这严重降低了系统的有效交易处理能力。为了解决这一问题,提出一种融合映射与有向无环图(DAG)的冲突消除机制—FabricIMD(Fabric integrated with map and DAG)。该机制在背书节点处通过映射识别交易间依赖关系,并使用有向无环图对此关系进行构建,以调整交易背书顺序,从而有效避免了交易冲突现象的出现。实验证明,当存在多笔相互关联的并发交易时,FabricIMD机制能显著减少因交易冲突导致的无效交易。随着交易间冲突程度的变化,系统有效交易吞吐量提升了15.68%~96.08%。此外,在处理无关联的并发交易时,引入该机制并未对系统性能造成显著影响。综上,FabricIMD机制在避免交易冲突现象出现的同时提高了系统有效交易吞吐量,减少了无效交易数量。
