Abstract
Reducing heat dissipation plays an indispensable role in boosting the magnetothermal effect but has received scant attention. Herein, a magnetothermal aerogel (MA) combining an efficient magnetothermal convertor for heat generation and a highly porous aerogel for reducing heat dissipation is developed. Such a heat confinement MA shows a large thermal resistance and high infrared absorption that can effectively confine the heat by regulating interior thermal conduction and radiation, exhibiting a supramagnetothermal effect. In addition, a waterproof beeswax coated MA achieves negligible heat loss and a supramagnetothermal effect even in high-thermal-diffusion aqueous media. As a proof of concept, a synthesized heat-triggered nitric oxide (NO) precursor is integrated into an MA, and the rapid NO generation (∼22 μM/min) resulting in an antibacterial effect further verifies the supramagnetothermal effect of the MA. This work provides an efficient strategy to promote the magnetothermal effect and offers inspiration for building a heat-triggering system.
