Ordinary cotton fabrics were impregnated into PAM flame-retardant materials using a simple impregnation process. After the impregnation, the test was performed in a non-dropping state (simulating the thermal protection effect of PAM flame retardant materials directly acting on the outside of the human body at the fire scene). The results show that the PAM flame retardant material prepared by adding 4 wt% HCB has the best comprehensive performance. TPP test shows that spraying PAM flame retardant material on the outside of the fabric can instantly give the fabric a higher thermal protection performance. Under the total heat flux of 84 kW/m<sup>2</sup>, the thermal performance protection value of the fabric is 2641.8 kW s/m<sup>2</sup>, and the second-degree burn time can reach 31.45 s. PAM flame retardant material does not damage the fabric. After soaping, the air permeability of the fabric decreases slightly, the moisture permeability and wettability are improved, and the breaking strength is almost unchanged. The CCT test showed that the thermal radiation flux was 50 kW/m<sup>2</sup>, the PHRR value of PAM flame retardant material was 10.64552 kW/m<sup>2</sup>, the THR was 6.9 MJ/m<sup>2</sup>, and the flame retardant performance was excellent. The PAM flame retardant material prepared in this project can be applied to the fire scene and directly sprayed on the outside of the clothing of rescuers and recipients, giving the fabric a better thermal protection effect.

Hence, we have developed a nanoplatform with enhanced permeability that not only generates significant amounts of ROS but also converts them into longer-lasting reactive nitrogen species (RNS), thereby improving tumor therapy efficacy. In our study, carbon dots were functionalized by doping with gold atoms and grafting nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) to form ACN, which exhibits glucose oxidase-like properties and enables laser-responsive NO release. ACN and indocyanine green (ICG) were then loaded onto MnO<sub>2</sub> nanoflowers to form MnO<sub>2</sub>@AI.

The ICG in MnO<sub>2</sub>@AI enhances its photothermal properties, leading to the responsive release of NO from GSNO grafted onto ACN, which then reacts with the increased ROS to generate more toxic RNS.
