In order to investigate the effect of indium tin oxide (ITO) on the performance of graphene functional coating on cotton fabric, different contents of ITO were added to the graphene coating system, and the effects of ITO content and curing time on various properties of graphene coating were studied. The results showed that the ITO particles adsorbed on the graphene sheets and filled the gaps between the graphene sheets, forming a dense conductive network, which could further improve the conductive performance of the functional coatings. When ITO content was 1.2%, the resistivity of the coating reached the lowest 1.8 Ω·cm, and the overall ultraviolet transmittance and reflectance were the lowest. With the increase of ITO content, the infrared reflectance will first decrease and then slowly increase, but the infrared reflectance is all below 0.5%. When the curing time reached 90 s, the resistivity and UV transmittance of cotton fabric coating decreased. With the extension of curing time, the coating on infrared reflectivity gradually increased, but the infrared reflectivity of the overall < 1%.
