A research team led by Professors Xianfeng Wang and Bin Ding from Donghua University has developed a breakthrough in protective textile technology by engineering highly permeable, liquid-repellent textiles (HPPT) with micro/nano-network structures. Published in Nano-Micro Letters , this innovative work presents a scalable and practical solution to the long-standing challenge of balancing protection and comfort in medical clothing. The newly developed HPPT materials offer superior air and moisture permeability, robust mechanical durability, and exceptional resistance to liquid penetration, positioning them as promising candidates for next-generation healthcare and wearable protection.
