摘要

Firefighting clothing provides essential safeguards for firefighters while engaging in fire suppression and life rescue operations. However, the inability to actively detect hazardous gas and self-thermal degradation of conventional firefighting clothing induce critical safety threats to firefighters. Herein, we design a dual-mode perceptual sensor via programmable assembly of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and Ti3C2Tx MXene@MoS2 nanocomposite in dual-mode triaxial structural aerogel fiber (DM-TSF) for both selective NH3 and temperature monitoring. The DM-TSF is prepared through triaxial wet spinning, with an alternating p/n-type thermoelectric (TE) core, a signal decoupling aramid nanofibers layer, and an NH3 sensing outer sheath. The TE core is composed of alternately interconnected p-type/SWCNT and n-type SWCNT/Polyethyleneimine, which exhibits high TE efficiency (8.44 μV K−1 for p-segment, 7.44 μV K−1 for n-segment) and wide-range (10–500 °C) temperature monitoring in DM-TSF. Furthermore, the abundant adsorption sites and high-density Schottky heterojunctions of the Ti3C2Tx MXene@MoS2 nanocomposite in the outer sheath enabled DM-TSF to exhibit an outstanding sensitivity (3.14% ppm−1@20 ppm) and high selectivity for NH3. A portable wireless system based on DM-TSF was further developed and integrated into firefighting clothing for temperature and NH3 monitoring, triggering alarms within 2 s and 28 s, respectively. This work sheds new light on the fabrication of intelligent multiplex hazard detection fibers that can respond to multi-hazard elements, thereby enhancing firefighters’ safety in complex fire scenarios.
