“…[1][2][3][4][5][6] The industry making technical textiles holds great potential significance in the marketing of nano-based merchandise, particularly antimicrobial as well as other promising medical and protective technical textiles. [7][8][9][10][11] These nano-based smart textile materials can be promptly initiated with the implementation of metal-based nanoparticles (NPs) during the finishing processing of different fibrous materials. Modern studies have demonstrated that the great potential of metal oxide NPs can be effectively employed to manufacture highly added-value textile materials.…”

Smart textiles with a multifunctional surface, such as with photoluminescence, antimicrobial, and superhydrophobic properties, are highly desirable. Silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) were prepared and immobilized onto a cotton surface using a facile pad-dry-curing technique to introduce long-lasting antimicrobial properties. The morphology of the silver immobilized cotton fibres was explored using scanning electron microscopic images and energy-dispersive X-ray spectra. The morphology of the formed Ag NPs was determined using a transmission electron microscope. Ag NPs exhibited uniform spreading and a high deposition density with a particle diameter in the range 25-55 nm. Both photoluminescence and superhydrophobic properties were explored by studying the cotton samples treated with hexadecyltrimethoxysilane nanocomposite containing lanthanide-doped strontium oxide aluminate NPs. Ultraviolet-visible light absorption, phosphorescence, and lifetime spectra were measured. The produced transparent superhydrophobic and photoluminescent film showed two absorbance bands at 273 and 367 nm and emission bands at 415 and 437 nm, as recognized by both absorption and emission spectra. Excellent antibacterial activities towards E. coli and S. aureus were monitored for the coated samples. Both fastness and colorimetric properties of Ag NPs-coated fabrics were explored.

“…The measurements were performed within a spectral range of 400–700 nm wavelengths using a two-ray spectrophotometer Spectraflash SF600 Plus (Datacolor, Trenton, NJ, USA) at standard illuminant D65 (LAV/Spec. Incl., d/8, D65/10°), from which the CIE color values were calculated using the Datacolor Match Textile 2.6.3.19R software (Datacolor, Trenton, NJ, USA) [ 31 , 32 ]. A Xenon halogen lamp was used as the light source.…”

Responsive materials, i.e., smart materials, have the ability to change their physical or chemical properties upon certain external signals. The development of nanofibrous halochromic materials, specifically combining the pH-sensitive functionality and unique nanofiber properties, could yield interesting new applications, especially when the common problem of dye leaching is successfully tackled. Therefore, in this article, we studied the fabrication process of polysaccharide-based halochromic nanofibrous materials by using a combination of various halochromic dyes (bromothymol blue, bromocresol green, and thymol blue) and cellulose acetate in a spinning solution using a one-pot strategy. The inhibition of leaching was addressed by using a complexing agent: poly-diallyl-dimethylammonium chloride (PDADMAC). The preparation of hybrid spinning solutions, their characterization, and ability to form continuous nanofibers were studied using a high production needle-less electrospinning system. The produced hybrid solutions and nanofibers were characterized, in terms of their rheological properties, chemical structure, morphology, and functionality. Fabricated nanofibrous halochromic structures show a clear color change upon exposure to different pH values, as well as the reduced leaching of dyes, upon the addition of a complexing agent. The leaching decreased by 61% in the case of bromocresol green, while, in the case of bromothymol blue and thymol blue, the leaching was reduced by 95 and 99%, respectively.

In the past few years, fluorescent materials have received significant attention due to their fascinating luminescent properties and wide-ranging applications. Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) has also attracted the interest of many researchers due to its remarkable performances. The combination of fluorescence and PDMS will undoubtedly produce abundant advanced multifunctional materials. Although numerous achievements have been made in this field, there is still no review to summarize the relevant research. This review summarizes the state-of-the-art achievements made in PDMS-based fluorescent materials (PFMs). First, the preparation of PFM is overviewed following a classification according to the fluorescent sources, including organic fluorescent molecules, perovskite, photoluminescent nanomaterials, and metal complexes. Their applications in sensors, fluorescent probes, multifunctional coatings, and anticounterfeiting are then introduced. Finally, the challenges and development trends in the field of PFMs are presented.
