“…The phase change fibers prepared by electrospinning technology can maintain the thermal properties of PCMs, and at the same time, the PCMs have stable morphology, flexibility, and controllable micro-nano fiber structure. [14] They are also more breathable and have higher moisture permeability, which makes them useful for topical medicinal treatments, among others. Encasing PCMs in porous frameworks not only greatly increases the PCMs' thermal conductivity but also helps to improve stability and shield the PCMs from the outside environment.…”

Due to the unique thermal absorption and release capabilities, phase‐change materials (PCMs) are used in various industrial fields, such as photo‐thermal storage and building‐energy saving. In recent years, more and more research has been dedicated to applying PCMs to the medical field with substantial progress, opening new avenues for disease treatment and healthcare. The safety and reliability of PCMs may be taken into serious consider for continuous application in the medical field, while the relevant review on the related development is currently lacking. In this work, the methods for enhancing the applicability and reliability of PCMs in the medical field are systematically summarized, including microencapsulation, electrospinning technology, and porous framework encapsulation, which effectively address the issues of liquid leakage. Subsequently, the emerging advances of PCMs in medical healthcare, including medical dressings treatment, drug delivery, cold chain transport, and bio‐bone cement are summarized. By exploring and analyzing the encapsulation methods, principles as well as the emerging advances of PCMs in medical field, the challenges and perspectives promoting the applications are identified, presenting the guidelines for further development.

Flexible fibers and textiles featuring photothermal conversion and storage capacities are ideal platforms for solar‐energy utilization and wearable thermal management. Other than using fossil‐fuel‐based synthetic fibers, re‐designing natural fibers with nanotechnology is a sustainable but challenging option. Herein, advanced core–shell structure fibers based on plant‐based nanocelluloses are obtained using a facile co‐axial wet‐spinning process, which has superior photothermal and thermal‐regulating performances. Besides serving as the continuous matrix, nanocelluloses also have two other important roles: dispersing agent when exfoliating molybdenum disulfide (MoS2), and stabilizer for phase change materials (PCM) in the form of Pickering emulsion. Consequently, the shell layer contains well‐oriented nanocelluloses and MoS2, and the core layer contains a high content of PCM in a leak‐proof encapsulated manner. Such a hierarchical cellulosic supportive structure leads to high mechanical strength (139 MPa), favorable flexibility, and large latent heat (92.0 J g−1), surpassing most previous studies. Furthermore, the corresponding woven cloth demonstrates satisfactory thermal‐regulating performance, high solar‐thermal conversion and storage efficiency (78.4–84.3%), and excellent long‐term performance. In all, this work paves a new way to build advanced structures by assembling nanoparticles and polymers for functional composite fibers in advanced solar‐energy‐related applications.
