Low infrared emissivity coatings were prepared by leafing Al powder, ZnS, adhesive, dispersant, and thickener. The coatings were applied to Al plate to investigate the emittance of coatings containing different adhesives. The coatings were applied to fabrics, and microstructure and influence of preparation conditions on the infrared emittance of coating were analyzed. Oily polyurethane presented lower emittance than other adhesives. The emittance of coating on fabric reduced gradually with the increase of Al powder and ZnS. When oily polyurethane was used as adhesive contenting 35%-40% Al, 2% ZnS, polyester coating gave the radiant emissivity of 0.69.
