Abstract

Abstract Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a sulfur‐based toxic gas similar to the well‐known Mustard gas, has an unpleasant odor often causes uncomfortableness, destress, allergy, and/or mental failure during social occasions. Here, a unique cotton fabric with its surface intensively coated (up to 40 wt.%) with zeolitic imidazolate framework‐8 (ZIF‐8) is synthesized via a facile and low‐cost hydrothermal method. The results of the H2S gas capture test after 3 h exposure show that the ZIF‐8@Cotton‐6 fabric can achieve up to 20 wt.% adsorption efficiency of H2S, along with 11.74 mmol H2S × (g ZIF‐8)−1 coated, respectively. Unlike conventional H2S absorption methods using porous carbon, ZIF‐8@Cotton composite fabric provides safe, close‐distance skin contact and long‐term protection to absorb the odor. Moreover, ZIF‐8@Cotton can be easily integrated into existing textile engineering processes. The hybrid fiber of ZIF‐8@Cotton exhibits great potential to absorb H2S on wearable garments and protective textiles applications.
