Herein, eco-friendly iron titanate nanoparticles, FeTiO 3 (FT), derived from natural resources (like ilmenite sand) were coated onto cotton fabrics (CF) to develop smart textile with enhanced UV-shielding property. The FT nanoparticles were dispersed in a polyurethane (PU) matrix, and the resulting nanocomposite was coated on CF. In addition, few sandwich architectures were designed by rationally stacking CF coated with PU and FT nanoparticles. The resulting sandwich structures blocked UV rays mainly by absorption. FT nanoparticles were comprehensively characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, UV–vis, vibrating sample magnetometer, and thermogravimetric analysis. FT was suitably surface-functionalized to enhance the quality of dispersion in PU, thereby facilitating effective coating on CF. The latter was systematically evaluated by microscopic and spectroscopic techniques. In addition, flammability of the coated CF was evaluated and the char was assessed to gain insight into the fire-retardant properties. Interestingly, CF coated with FT exhibited a strong UV-shielding ability in sharp contrast to CF coated with PU. Further, the sandwich architecture consisting of CF with FT and PU resulted in an increase in the ultraviolet-protecting factor value to >50 compared to only PU-coated CF. Our results indicate that the sandwich structure holds excellent promise in the quest of designing smart textiles with enhanced UV shielding.

“…It was reported that FeTiO 3 could be synthesized by using solid-state reaction above 1200 1C under vacuum [21][22][23]. Popular techniques that have been employed to synthesize FeTiO 3 in the recent year include ball milling [24], chemical reduction techniques [11], co-precipitation [25] etc. The structural, optical, electrical and magnetic properties of FeTiO 3 are strongly influenced by the preparation technique [26].…”

In general, ilmenite FeTiO 3 is synthesized by solid-state reaction at very high pressure and high temperature. Synthesis of FeTiO 3 is not an easy task as the Fe 2 þ ions are not stable. Therefore, it is really challenging to prepare this material. In this work nano-ilmenite FeTiO 3 was synthesized by the sol-gel method. Structural, optical and magnetic characterizations were performed. The bandgap of FeTiO 3 was determined to be 2.8 eV showing FeTiO 3 as suitable wide bandgap material for technological applications. The FeTiO 3 nanoparticles exhibit weak ferromagnetic properties at and below room temperature. The Né el temperature was observed to be around 52 K.

“…Ilmenite (FeTiO 3 ) is one of the most common minerals in the Earth's crust. It is also a wide bandgap (2.58-2.9 eV) antiferromagnetic semiconductor [19,20], and it has potential applications in spintronics, high temperature integrated circuits, high power electronic devices, chemical catalysts, and photocatalysts [21][22][23][24]. Therefore, it has been extensively studied in all its varieties.…”
