Research progress on infrared stealth fabric

Abstract

According to the detection method of infrared detection system and Stefan-Boltzmann's law, the working principle of infrared stealth is analyzed. Some methods for achieving infrared stealth effect are summarized: reducing the infrared emissivity of fabric surface and controlling the surface temperature of fabric. The research included four kinds of infrared stealth materials such as low emissivity coating materials, temperature control coating materials, intelligent stealth clothing materials and bio-bionic stealth materials. The problems existing in the research of infrared stealth fabrics are pointed out. On this basis, the future development direction of infrared stealth materials is prospected.
