Abstract

Moderate ultraviolet (UV) radiation from sunlight is essential for human health

but overexposure to UV rays can cause serious adverse effects. It is important to detect UV radiation from sunlight in time to prevent damage from excessive exposure. Here

a ready-to-use

easy-to-interpret

inexpensive

reusable

and wearable all-in-one UV monitoring and shielding sensor SP-TPE@PU textile has been developed. The SP-TPE@PU textiles are constructed by photochromic molecule SP-TPE and commercial polymer polyurethane (PU) through electrospinning. The SP-TPE molecule acts as the sensor component

and PU contributes to high flexibility. The SP-TPE@PU textiles show remarkable durability (against repeated twisting

curling

bending deformations

and water immersion) and good permeability

making them durable and breathable wearable materials. When exposed to sunlight

the SP-TPE@PU textiles rapidly exhibit significant color changes due to the efficient isomerization of SP-TPE

serving as an early warning and monitoring of UV radiation. In addition

the SP-TPE@PU textiles can revert to the initial state with visible light irradiation for reuse. Furthermore

the SP-TPE@PU textiles possess excellent UV shielding ability

contributing to human body protection. Simple and easy operation

significant and reversible color changes

good breathability and mechanical properties make SP-TPE@PU textiles reusable and wearable all-in-one UV monitoring and shielding sensors.
