Due to the life characteristics such as physiological structure and transpiration,plants have unique optical and infrared features.In the optical band,because of the common effects of chlorophyll and water,plant leafs show spectral reflectance characteristics change in 550,680,1 400 and 1 900 nm significantly.In the infrared wave band,driven by transpiration,plants could regulate temperature on their own initiative,which make the infrared characteristics of plants different from artificial materials.So palnt bionic materials were proposed to simulate optical and infrared characteristics of plants.By analyzing formation mechanism of optical and infrared features about green plants,the component design and heat-transfer process of plants bionic materials were studied,above these the heat-transfer control formulation was established.Based on water adsorption/release compound,optical pigments and other man-made materials,plant bionic materials preparation methods were designed which could simulate the optical and infrared features of green plants.By chemical casting methods plant bionic material films were prepared,which use polyvinyl alcohol as film forming and water adsorption/release compound,and use optical pigments like chrome green and macromolecule yellow as colouring materials.The research conclusions achieved by testings figured out:water adsorption/release testing showed that the plant bionic materials with a certain thickness could absorb 1.3 kg water per square meter,which could satisfy the water usage of transpiration simulation one day;the optical and infrared simulated effect tests indicated that the plant bionic materials could preferably simulate the spectral reflective performance of green plants in optical wave band(380～2 500 nm,expecially in 1 400 and 1 900 nm which were water absorption wave band of plants),and also it had similar daily infrared radiation variations with green plants,daily average radiation temperature difference was 0.37 ℃,maximum radiation temperature difference was 0.9 ℃;so according to the testing results,the materials behave well plant bionic performance.
