Abstract
The escalating global threat of ultraviolet (UV) radiation is manifested through multifaceted damage pathways including cutaneous carcinogenesis, photodegradation of organic substrates, marine ecosystem destabilization, and infrastructure weathering. These urgent challenges have catalyzed sustained interdisciplinary efforts toward advanced UV-shielding technologies spanning biomedical, environmental, and industrial domains. Current material arsenals include melanin, lignin, tannin, polydopamine, zinc oxide and titanium dioxide, etc. These materials can be applied to diverse fields such as food packaging, sunscreen fabrics, sunscreen creams, eyeglasses, and sunscreen films through tailored processing techniques…
