Abstract

Single-mode personal thermal-moisture management fabrics cannot ensure the comfort and safety of the human body in high-temperature, high-humidity, and complex environments. Here, a tri-cooling cotton fabric (TCCF) that combines evaporation, convection, and heat storage with a converging pore array, Janus wetting structure and phase change microcapsule is demonstrated. Benefiting from its Janus wetting structure and converging pore array, the TCCF exhibits excellent unidirectional sweat-wicking performance (717 unidirectional transfer index) and rapid water vapor transmission (223.0 g/m²/h). The TCCF can lower the temperature by 4.5 °C through evaporation and convection compared with conventional cotton. Furthermore, the TCCF demonstrates excellent buffering capacity for sudden temperature changes. Evaporation, convection, and heat storage help cool the human body in complex environments.

Janus棉具有单向排汗，三模冷却和抗菌性能，适合个人热湿管理

单模个人热湿管理面料不能保证高温、高湿和复杂环境下人体的舒适性和安全性。本文展示了一种集蒸发、对流和蓄热于一体的三冷却棉织物（TCCF），它具有聚拢孔阵列、Janus润湿结构和相变微胶囊。由于其Janus润湿结构和收敛孔阵列，TCCF具有良好的单向排汗性能（717单向传递指数）和快速的水蒸气传输（223.0 g/m2/h）。与传统棉花相比，TCCF可通过蒸发和对流将温度降低4.5℃。此外，TCCF对温度突变具有良好的缓冲能力。蒸发、对流和蓄热有助于在复杂环境中为人体降温。

期刊介绍： The International Journal of Biological Macromolecules is a well-established international journal dedicated to research on the chemical and biological aspects of natural macromolecules. Focusing on proteins, macromolecular carbohydrates, glycoproteins, proteoglycans, lignins, biological poly-acids, and nucleic acids, the journal presents the latest findings in molecular structure, properties, biological activities, interactions, modifications, and functional properties. Papers must offer new and novel insights, encompassing related model systems, structural conformational studies, theoretical developments, and analytical techniques. Each paper is required to primarily focus on at least one named biological macromolecule, reflected in the title, abstract, and text.
