Fluorescent photochromism has been applied as an attractive approach for the production of
effective authentication substrates to show dual-mode secure encoding. In the current study …

The extremely long-persistent photoluminescence of Eu (II)-doped (and co-doped with Dy
(III) ions) strontium aluminum oxide (SrAl2O4: Eu2+, Dy3+) was firstly reported on 1996 by …

Linen fibres were coated with a glow‐in‐the‐dark photoluminescence, flame‐retarding, and
hydrophobic smart nanocomposite using the pad‐dry‐curing process. Ecologically friendly …

A superhydrophobic surface is defined as having a contact angle exceeding 150° C,
indicating a remarkable ability to repel water. Generally, superhydrophobicity originates from …

Novel epoxy resin (E)/CNW nanocomposite coatings were developed with different total
contents of rare-earth doped aluminate nanoparticles (REA NPs). The produced epoxy …

Smart window can be defined as switchable material whose light transmission is altered
upon exposure to light, voltage, or heat. However, smart windows are usually produced from …

Novel photoluminescent paint was prepared for safety marking purposes using an emulsion
system composed of an acrylic polymer, cellulose nanocrystals and lanthanide-doped …

Photochromism is an interesting method to enhance the anticounterfeiting activity of
commercial products. Polyester fibers have been significant polymers for a variety of …

Linen has been a significant material for textile packaging. Thus, the application of the
simple spray-coating method to coat linen fibers with a flame-retardant, antimicrobial …

Textiles that respond to external stimuli with a change in their properties are referred to as
“smart clothing”. Fluorescent textiles, which change color in response to light, are a subset of …
