Abstract
|
Maintaining a stable body temperature in cold environments is essential for ensuring thermal comfort and the proper functioning of physiological processes. In this study, an integrated multifunctional laser-induced graphene (LIG) composite film was fabricated by constructing silver nanoparticle (Ag)@MXene heterostructures on LIG layers. The coating of MXene onto the porous LIG structure reduces electron transport resistance, while the incorporation of Ag nanoparticles improves the photothermal and antibacterial properties. The resulting Ag@MXene heterostructure-decorated LIG film retains intrinsic flexibility and demonstrates excellent electrothermal performance, including a broad temperature range (45–133 °C), safe operating voltage (1.0–2.8 V), and rapid thermal response (reaching 133 °C within 100 s at 2.8 V). Additionally, the multifunctional films exhibit superior photothermal performances (74.1 °C under 1 sun), electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (34.4 dB) and outstanding antibacterial efficacy (>98 % against Bacillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus). This innovative approach overcomes the limitations of conventional metal-based films and presents a promising solution for applications in wearable electronics, thermal therapy, and healthcare, where high flexibility and stability are required.
