This article introduces a new type of textile with a layered nanofiber network and Janus wettability, which effectively manages the temperature and humidity of the human body. This textile exhibits excellent spectral selectivity, rapid sweat evaporation rate, and directional water transport property. In practical applications, when worn by a human body, it can reduce the temperature by about 4.2 degrees Celsius compared to conventional cotton textiles. By integrating decent radiative cooling and sweat wicking-drying properties, this textile enhances personal thermal and moisture management performance, reducing excessive heat stress in outdoor environments.
As the interlayer between the skin and the environment, textiles play a vital role in achieving personal comfort and safety by managing the localized human body thermal and moisture conditions. However, intense exercise or sunlight exposure in hot and humid outdoor environments still leads to the accumulation of heat and excessive sweat on the human body. This reduces industrial labor productivity and results in economic losses. Herein, a sandwich-structured textile with a hierarchically nanofibrous network and Janus wettability is demonstrated. This textile exhibits excellent spectral selectivity (with a solar reflectance of 93.4% and a human body infrared emittance of 96.3%), rapid sweat evaporation rate (0.26 g h(-1)), and directional water transport property (a oneway transport index of 1140%). In a practical scenario, a human body covered by this sandwich-structured textile achieved a temperature drop of similar to 4.2 degrees C compared with a commercial cotton textile. Through the integration of decent outdoor radiative cooling and continuous sweat wicking-drying properties, this sandwich-structured textile exhibits enhanced personal thermal and moisture management performance. Consequently, this textile leads to a significant reduction in human sweat consumption and excessive heat stress in outdoor environments.
