摘要

The development of hazardous fields such as petroleum miners urgently needs fabrics with high visibility and fire safety performance, but at the same time it is challenging. Here, we introduced liquid metal/polymerizable deep eutectic solvent system, fluorescent material and flame retardant into carboxymethylcellulose system, and prepared a flame-retardant fluorescent gel fabric (CP@Sr/F-A-NF) by cross-linking polymerization in aqueous solution. Due to the gel fabric loaded with the flame retardant ammonium polyphosphate, CP@Sr/F-A-NF demonstrated good flame retardancy and could rapidly self-extinguish after leaving the flame. More importantly, the fluorescent material is uniformly distributed on the gel with a large surface area, which endows CP@Sr/F-A-NF with high visibility, and achieves the purpose of warning and being easily detected in dangerous situations, which provides safety protection and rescue time for the personnel working in special environments. This work provides a new approach and insights for the preparation of the next generation of protective clothing for personnel working in hazardous environments.
