Abstract

Smart Clothing for Sustainable Thermal Comfort This cover illustrates the passive thermal regulation of a zero Poisson-inspired, flexible, humidity- and temperature-responsive material exemplified in smart clothing. The electrospun nonwoven coating maintains dimensional stability by combining a honeycomb nanofiber structure with a tailored mechanical cutting pattern. Together with a silver coating, the system enables passive heat retention (closed pores) and dissipation (open pores) for sustainable thermal comfort. More details can be found in the Research Article by Eva Loccufier, Karen De Clerck, and co-workers (DOI: 10.1002/adma.202517161).
