Abstract
The oil-flax straws are commonly regarded as discarded waste material and subjected to incineration, leading to resource wastage and environmental contamination. Converting biological waste materials into widely acclaimed multifunctional textiles may potentially address this issue while maximizing the value of the materials. In this study, we propose a methodology that utilizes oil-flax needle-punched nonwoven fabric as the flexible substrate, impregnated with MXene, and spray-coated with silver nanowires (Ag NWs) to prepare multifunctional textile. The integration of Ag NWs and MXene forms a comprehensive conductive network, exhibiting superior conductivity (757.6 S/m). Consequently, the textile demonstrates exceptional thermal management capabilities, with impressive electrothermal performance (90.1 °C at 5 V) and photothermal efficiency (95.6 °C at 200 mW/cm2). Furthermore, the textile achieves an electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding effectiveness of 30 dB in the X-band and displays remarkable antimicrobial efficacy against Escherichia coli (E. coli) at 99.11 % and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) at 99.23 %. Significantly, this study offers a novel direction for processing and reusing of biomass waste materials.
期刊介绍:
The aim of the journal is to provide a respectful outlet for ''sound science'' papers in all research areas on surfaces and interfaces. We define sound science papers as papers that describe new and well-executed research, but that do not necessarily provide brand new insights or are merely a description of research results.
Surfaces and Interfaces publishes research papers in all fields of surface science which may not always find the right home on first submission to our Elsevier sister journals (Applied Surface, Surface and Coatings Technology, Thin Solid Films)
