What is Breathable and Colorful Cellulose Acetate-Based Nanofibrous Membranes for Directional Moisture Transport about?

Textiles with excellent moisture transport characteristics play key role in regulating comfort of the body, and use of color in textiles helps in developing aesthetically pleasing apparels. Herein, we report an aesthetically pleasing and breathable dual-layer cellulose acetate (CA) based nanofibrous membranes with exceptional directional moisture transport performance. The outer layer was synthesized by subjecting CA nanofibers to hydrolysis and reactive dyeing processes, which converted moderately hydrophobic CA nanofibers into uniformly colored superhydrophilic CA nanofibers with an excellent wettability. In addition to excellent wettability and superhydrophilic nature, dyed CA (DCA) nanofibers also offered high color yield and dye fixation as well as considerable colorfastness performance against washing and light, thus, were used as the outer layer. However, pristine CA nanofibers were chosen as the inner layer for their moderate hydrophobicity. The subsequent CA/DCA nanofiber membrane produced a high wettability gradient, which facilitated directional moisture transport from CA to DCA layers. The resultant dual-layer nanofiber membranes offered a high color yield of 16.33 with
