  Abstract

The lack of thermoregulating functionality and high flammability for cotton fabrics greatly restricts their application in high-performance fields. Herein, we report a versatile layer-by-layer (LBL) assembly strategy for introducing a multilayered film consisting of phase change microcapsules and ammonium polyphosphate to cotton fabric, endowing cotton with thermoregulation and flame retardant properties. The coated fabrics were characterized based on scanning electron microscopy (SEM), water-vapor transmission rate (WVT), thermogravimetry (TG), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), limiting oxygen index (LOI) and infrared thermal imaging. A fabric deposited with 20 bilayers (MCPM/APP-20) shows an appropriate WVT (50.57 g/m2
