Highlights A lamellar-structured fluorinated cellulose nanofiber aerogel film is prepared by filtration-induced delaminated gelation and ambient drying. The aerogel film demonstrates exceptional mechanical flexibility and resistance to complex deformations. The aerogel film displays low thermal conductivity, high visible-light transmittance and superior selective infrared emissivity, rendering it high solar-thermal regulatory cooling performance.
