主　　题：Scale-like knitted fabric Stab-resistance Flexibility Air permeability Warmth retention and thermal insulation properties 

摘      要：Inspired by the overlapping structure of snake scales,a reinforced scale-like knitted fabric(R-SLKF)was created in this *** achieve this,short carbon fibers in an epoxy resin(ER)matrix were incorporated into the scales of an *** resulting textile is a highly stable protective composite that is flexible,warm,and thermally *** addition,supe-rior stab-resistance is ensured through rigid protective blocks in the R-SLKF,making up a hard overlapping scale region,besides satisfactory flexibility via soft twisted ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene yarn-based *** R-SLKF achieves high stab resistance(peak load of approximately 600 N for a single scale thickness of 2 mm),good flexibility(~290 mN cm),and breathability(100 MPa,423 mm/s),coupled with good warmth retention and thermal insulation prop-erties(0.28℃/s),which are superior to previously reported protective composite *** the results,the combination of desirable individual protection,excellent wearability and comfort enables human beings to survive in extremely danger-ous *** element simulations provided valuable insights into the factors influencing the stab resistance of R-SLKF and elucidated the underlying anti-puncture mechanism in accordance with the experimental *** study presents a novel strategy for the facile industrial fabrication of flexible and lightweight protective composite textiles,which is expected to enhance the structure and material design for future innovations and provide advantages for personal protec-tive equipment in various industrial fields.
