The　icing　phenomenon　has　caused　much　inconvenience　to　people＇s　life.　With　the　continuous　progress　of　technology,　it　has　been　found　that　hydrophobic　materials　can　be　used　in　the　anti-icing　field,　however　icing　still　occurs　on　hydrophobic　surfaces　with　long-term　using　in　extremely　harsh　environments.　Therefore,　materials　with　anti-icing/icephobic　and　deicing　functionalities　have　become　an　innovative　strategy.　In　this　paper,　photothermal　hydrophobic　materials　with　anti-icing/icephobic　and　photothermal　deicing　properties　are　prepared　using　the　photothermal　nickel,　Chinese　ink　and　polydimethylhydrosiloxane　with　low　surface　energy.　Due　to　the　synergistic　effect　of　the　photothermal　nickel　nanoparticles　and　carbon　nanoparticles　in　Chinese　ink,　the　prepared　material　has　a　fast　temperature　rise　rate　at　1000　W/m2,　which　can　reach　the　equilibrium　temperature　of　72　°C　within　80　s.　The　freezing　time　of　water　droplets　can　be　delayed　to　1018　s　at　−15　°C,　which　is　11　times　longer　than　that　of　nickel-plated　materials.　The　ice　on　the　coating　melts　rapidly　and　slides　off　along　the　inclined　surface　under　the　sunlight,　proving　that　the　material　has　a　good　photothermal　deicing　performance.　Additionally,　the　coated　surface　has　excellent　wear　resistance　and　UV　resistance,　which　can　be　used　outdoors　for　a　long　time.　This　powerful　electroless　nickel　plating　fabric,　integrated　with　anti-icing/icephobic　and　fast　deicing　functionality　with　photothermal　and　drag　reduction　effect,　provides　a　new　approach　to　solve　the　icing　problem　in　outdoor　clothing.　©　2022　Elsevier　B.V.
