Exemplary embodiments of the present disclosure provide a system, apparatus, and methods for producing a high-performance camouflage and thermal management composite fabric textile systems. The systems comprise woven and non-woven composite fabrics consisting of layers for thermal and electromagnetic wave propagation as well as human thermal emission control. The systems incorporate thermal plastic insulation, felt insulation, electromagnetic wave absorption materials, electromagnetic wave propagation and thermal emission control elements, and camouflage pigment patterns. Dots containing encapsulated metallic particulates enable omni-spectral electromagnetic wave and thermal radiation signature manipulation and control as well as cost-effective manufacturing. Single blended textile processed via needle punching produces hair/fur-like protrusions made from a multilayer fabric composition having EM wave and thermal radiation control elements. The protrusions subsequently contain EM propagation and thermal emission control elements on their surfaces for omni-spectral camouflage and detection mitigation. The systems expand the options for meeting the demands of today and future stealth missions.

Graphene-impregnated microfiber fabrics and methods for producing such fabrics are disclosed. In one example, a method of producing a graphene-impregnated microfiber fabric comprises providing a microfiber substrate comprising polymer fibers. Graphene is mixed into a polymer-based dispersion to create a graphene-impregnated polymer-based dispersion. The graphene-impregnated microfiber fabric is formed by immersing the microfiber substrate in the graphene-impregnated polymer-based dispersion to coat the polymer fibers of the substrate with the graphene and the polymer of the polymer-based dispersion. The fabric is removed from the dispersion and dried.
