Efficient and sustainable ultraviolet (UV)-blocking materials are of great interest in many fields. Herein, novel cellulose-based UV-blocking films were developed via surface modification using Biginelli reaction. The resulting films exhibited excellent visible transparency (80%) at 550 nm and superhigh UV-blocking performance, which can shield almost 100% UVA and UVB. These features are very stable even the materials being subjected to solvents, UV irradiation, and thermal treatment. This work provides a novel and facile strategy to fabricate functional cellulose-based films with superhigh anti-ultraviolet performance. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
