A detailed review of recent developments of layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition as a promising
approach to reduce flammability of the most widely used fibers (cotton, polyester, polyamide …

Abstract Polyester/cotton (T/C) blends are widely used in the textile industry owed to the
combination of both advantages of cotton and polyester. However, T/C blends are highly …

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fabrics are used almost everywhere in daily life. However,
they burn with melting and dripping, causing potential dangers. This work aims to solve the …

Abstract Poly (ethylene terephthalate)(PET) fabric is ubiquitous in daily life; however the
flammability of PET poses a risk for fire events. In this work, a P, N and Si tri-element flame …

Excellent flame-retardant cotton fabric with desired hydrophobic is of particular interests for
both academia and industry. Herein, an effective multilayer coating consisting of …

Inspired by the structure of corn, a NiFe Prussian blue analogue nanocages decorated
magnesium hydroxide composite was synthesized for the first time using magnesium …

High flammability and dripping restrict the widely applications of PET fiber, a lot of efforts
have been made to overcome these problems. In this paper, chitosan (CH) and ammonium …
