Abstract:

Abstract Silver nanoparticles can be prepared by using a microorganism. The objectives of the study were to determine the ability of Fusarium oxysporum BNT-02 in reducing silver nitrate solution to silver nanoparticles, to evaluate the effect of variations in treatment of textile materials toward antibacterial activity of textile materials impregnated with silver nanoparticles on Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 25924 and Escherichia coli ATCC 35218. In this study, silver nanoparticle were obtained by reducing the AgNO3 solution by F.oxysporum BNT-02. Coating of silver nanoparticles on textile materials was carried out by inserting sterile textile material into silver nanoparticle and shaking then drying. The textile material modified with silver nanoparticles was characterized for antibacterial activity against S.aureus ATCC 25924 and E.coli ATCC 35218. The inhibition zone to determine antibacterial activity was observed every 6 hours for 48 hours of incubation time. The inhibition zone data was analyzed using ANCOVA and t-test. The results showed that F.oxysporum BNT-02 can be used as a reducing agent for producing silver nanoparticles. The textile material coated with silver nanoparticles had antibacterial properties against S. aureus ATCC 25924 and E. coli ATCC 35218. Antibacterial activity of textile materials coated with silver nanoparticles on S.aureus ATCC 25924 showed a larger inhibition zone than E.coli ATCC 35218.

Abstract:

An improper indoor microclimate has adverse effects on the state of preservation of historical textiles arranged in them, favoring the development of bacteriological microflora. The current study aims to combine traditional and innovative methods for cleaning and preserving a 100-year-old traditional blouse from Bihor, Romania. The material of the blouse was impregnated with 30 and 70 ppm silver nanosuspensions and washed with a substance obtained from boiling natural wood ash (lye). The research goals were to determine the antimicrobial action of lye washing and silver nanoparticles applied to the analyzed textile material and identify the way in which the environmental factors (light) act upon the conservation degree of textile objects impregnated with silver nanoparticles. All these procedures are eco-friendly and do not cause any damage to the constituent material of the fabrics. The use of the hyperspectral imaging technique proved the permeation of both 30 and 70 ppm silver nanosuspensions into the textile, producing changes in the textile’s reflectance spectrum after being treated with them. The results showed anti-bactericidal/fungal properties of both silver nanoparticles and lye. Microbiological analyses revealed that bacterial colonies were reduced to more than 95% in both cases. The antibacterial effect of silver nanoparticles on the textile material of the blouse was maintained throughout the duration of the study, and under normal environmental conditions, the effects would remain active for a long period.

Abstract:

Metals, metallic compounds, and, recently, metallic nanoparticles appear in textiles due to impurities from raw materials, contamination during the manufacturing process, and/or their deliberate addition. However, the presence of lead, cadmium, chromium (VI), arsenic, mercury, and dioctyltin in textile products is regulated in Europe (Regulation 1907/2006). Metal determination in fabrics was performed by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) after microwave-assisted acid digestion. The ICP-MS procedure has been successfully validated; relative standard deviations were up to 3% and analytical recoveries were within the 90–107% range. The developed method was applied to several commercial textiles, and special attention has been focused on textiles with nanofinishing (fabrics prepared with metallic nanoparticles for providing certain functionalities). Arsenic content (in textile T4) and lead content (in subsamples T1-1, T1-2, and T3-3) were found to exceed the maximum limits established by the European Regulation 1907/2006. Although impregnation of yarns with mercury compounds is not allowed, mercury was quantified in fabrics T1-2, T5, and T6. Further speciation studies for determining hexavalent chromium species in sample T9 are necessary (hexavalent chromium is the only species of chromium regulated). Some textile products commercialised in Europe included in this study do not comply with European regulation 1907/2006.

Abstract:

The article deals with issues related to the textiles coated with metal nanoparticles and detection of the concentrations of released particles in water. The main risks associated with the use of metal covered textiles are detaching of metal nanoparticles from the material during use and care and thus polluting the environment, or inhaled to get in a human or animal body. Nanoparticles can be detached from the textile during washing also, thus polluting the water body and making detriment to the living beings in them. This article aims to look at equipment for nanoparticle size and concentration detection in liquids. Described the world's most popular methods (Microscopy techniques, Photon Correlation Spectroscopy, Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis) and compared to new, alternative method - Gas Discharge Visualization (GDV) electrography. Within the framework of the article analyzed the advantages and disadvantages of each method and estimated the perspective of GDV electrography for detection of metal nanoparticles in water.

Abstract:

One of the main challenges in wound healing is the wound infection due to various causes, of which moisture is the most important reason. Owing to this fact, wound dressings that can collect wound moisture in addition to showing antibacterial properties have provided an important basis for wound healing research. In this study, gelatin and poly lactic acid (PLA) polymers were used in a wound dressing textile to provide gelation and structure strength properties, respectively. Meanwhile, silver nanoparticles (SNPs) synthesized through the green method were integrated into these fibers to provide the formed textile with antibacterial properties. Nanoparticles were made using donkey dung extract, and nanofibers were produced by the solution blow spinning method which has high production efficiency and low energy consumption among spinning methods. The produced nanoparticles were characterized and evaluated by UV-Vis, DLS, XRD, and FTIR methods, and the production of silver nanoparticles that were coated with metabolites in the extract was proven. In addition, the morphology and diameter of the resulted fibers and presence of nanoparticles were confirmed by the SEM method. The size and size distribution of the synthesized fibers were determined through analyzing SEM results. Gelatin nanofibers demonstrated a mean size of 743 nm before and 773 nm after nanoparticle coating. PLA nanofibers demonstrated a mean size of 57 nm before and 182 nm after nanoparticle coating. Finally, 335 nm was the mean diameter size of gelatin/PLA/SNPs nanofibers. Also, the textiles synthesized by PLA and gelatin which contained silver nanoparticles showed higher antibacterial activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative species compared to PLA and gelatin tissues without nanoparticles. Cytotoxicity test on L929 cells showed that silver nanoparticles incorporated textiles of PLA and gelatin show a very low level and non-significant toxicity compared to the free particles.

Abstract:

The article studies the properties of textile materials filled with magnetite nanoparticles. These materials have great prospects for creating smart clothes. They have both magnetic and hygienic properties. Chemical transformations in the production of magnetic nanopowder are described. The end product of the process is a mixture of oxides of divalent and ferric iron. The resulting mixture has magnetic properties. Conducted micro and macro experiments showed sufficient adhesion retention strength of magnetite nanoparticles in a textile material. Microscopic studies of the attachment of magnetic particles to the fibers of a textile material have been conducted. The data obtained in express mode allow us to determine the average mass of a magnetic particle in a textile material, the total number of nanoparticles, and, accordingly, to predict the magnetic force that a textile material saturated with magnetite can possess. The existence of the magnetic properties of a textile material filled with magnetite nanoparticles has been proven. A mathematical model of the dependence of the magnetic attraction force of a textile material on the distance and the number of abrasion cycles has been developed. The directions of the use of magnetic textile materials for the creation of smart clothes are proposed. Potential uses for such materials include sportswear and textiles for the disabled. The developed methods can predict the magnetic strength of the obtained textile materials and evaluate their resistance, which is necessary in the development of smart clothing elements based on these materials.

Abstract:

Textile technology is advancing by incorporating the benefits of nanotechnology into its diverse fields. Nanoparticle inclusion is one of the potential finishing processes in textile treatment to create multifunctional textiles. The goal of this research is to impart antibacterial, stain-release, and UV (ultra-violet) protection properties on cotton fabric by depositing ZnO nanoparticles on the fabric surface. Following the synthesis of the nanoparticles by the use of a sonochemical strategy, the nanoparticles are then fixed onto the fabric through the application of a mechanical thermo-fixation technique. The nanoparticles are applied to the fabric at three different concentrations: 0.5%, 1%, and 2%. The surface characterization shows that nanoparticles are of an average size of 40–100 nm and nearly spherical in shape. The colony count method is used to quantify the antibacterial activity of the nano-treated fabric. The results indicate that the treated fabric is effective against both gram-positive ( S. aureus) and gram-negative ( E. coli) bacteria. The color stain of the direct blue dye of treated fabric has degraded under UV irradiation, indicating the stain release property. The results demonstrate considerable stain release that rises with the amount of ZnO nanoparticles. Excellent UV protection is also found since 2%-ZnO nano-coated fabric shows around 96% blockage of UV rays.

Abstract:

Photocatalytic degradation by titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles has been studied at textile dyes in water. TiO2 nanoparticles prepared were hand printed on the glass substrate. Textile dye-Rhodamine B added in water is allowed to react with the sample on the glass substrate under UV-VIS illumination for different intervals of time. Effective degradation of hazardous textile dye from aqueous solution by photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanoparticle was observed. Also, surface features of the screen printed sample were analyzed using Optical Microscopy and morphology by Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). Degree of dye degraded was characterized by UV-VIS spectroscopy and results showed that the photocatalysis using TiO2 is a good alternative to textile wastewater treatment.

Abstract:

In recent years bioactive textiles have risen to the forefront of consumers perception due to their potential protection against virus, fungi and bacteria. However, traditional textile staining is an eco-damaging process that and current methods of textile functionalization are expensive, complicated and with great environmental impact. With that in mind, this work sought to show a possible solution for this problematic through the usage of a novel one step textile dyeing and functionalization method based upon nanoencapsulated textile dyes (NTDs). To do so navy blue everzol NTDs were produced with chitosan, cotton dyed, characterized through FTIR and SEM and biological potential evaluated through biocompatibility screening and antimicrobial activity against skin pathogens. The data obtained showed that NTDs effectively dyed the target textile through a coating of the cotton fibre and that NTDs formed hydrogen bonds with the cellulose fibre via electrostatic interactions of the chitosan amino groups with cotton sulphate groups. From a biocompatibility perspective NTDs dyed cotton had no deleterious effects upon a skin cell line, as it promoted cellular metabolism of HaCat cells, while traditionally died cotton reduced it by 10%. Last but not least, NTDs dyed cotton showed significant antimicrobial activity as it reduced viable counts of MRSA, MSSA and A. baumannii between 1 and 2 log of CFU while traditional dyed cotton had no antimicrobial activity. Considering these results the novel method proposed shows is a viable and ecological alternative for the development of antimicrobial textiles with potential biomedical applications.

Abstract:

The novel multifunctional electrospun textiles were fabricated by incorporating sheet-like kaolinite and silver nanoparticles (AgNps) into a polyurethane (PU) textile by using electrostatic spinning to promote wound-healing process. Threedimensional network of PU electrospun textiles offered an appropriate framework for loading kaolinite nanosheets and AgNps. Moreover, the kaolinite nanosheets healed bleeding wounds by accelerating plasma absorption, increasing blood cell concentrations, and stimulating coagulation factors. Furthermore, the AgNps killed microbes by destroying the cell membrane, while the deleterious effects were controlled by incorporation into the electrospun textile. The therapeutic effects of multifunctional electrospun textile in treating full-thickness abdominal wall defect were explored. The wound healing process could be accelerated via the textile by restoring the abdominal physiological environment, reducing the inflammatory response, and promoting collagen deposition, angiogenesis, and epithelization.

Abstract:

Nanotechnology is a powerful tool for engineering functional materials that has the potential to transform textiles into high-performance, value-added products. In recent years, there has been considerable interest in the development of functional textiles using metal nanoparticles (MNPs). The incorporation of MNPs in textiles allows for the obtention of multifunctional properties, such as ultraviolet (UV) protection, self-cleaning, and electrical conductivity, as well as antimicrobial, antistatic, antiwrinkle, and flame retardant properties, without compromising the inherent characteristics of the textile. Environmental sustainability is also one of the main motivations in development and innovation in the textile industry. Thus, the synthesis of MNPs using ecofriendly sources, such as polysaccharides, is of high importance. The main functions of polysaccharides in these processes are the reduction and stabilization of MNPs, as well as the adhesion of MNPs onto fabrics. This review covers the major research attempts to obtain textiles with different functional properties using polysaccharides and MNPs. The main polysaccharides reported include chitosan, alginate, starch, cyclodextrins, and cellulose, with silver, zinc, copper, and titanium being the most explored MNPs. The potential applications of these functionalized textiles are also reported, and they include healthcare (wound dressing, drug release), protection (antimicrobial activity, UV protection, flame retardant), and environmental remediation (catalysts).

Abstract:

Depositing nanoparticles in textiles have been a promising strategy to achieve multifunctional materials. Particularly, antimicrobial properties are highly valuable due to the emergence of new pathogens and the spread of existing ones. Several methods have been used to functionalize textile materials with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). Therefore, this review highlighted the most used methods for AuNPs preparation and the current studies on the topic in order to obtain AuNPs with suitable properties for antimicrobial applications and minimize the environmental concerns in their production. Reporting the detailed information on the functionalization of fabrics, yarns, and fibers with AuNPs by different methods to improve the antimicrobial properties was the central objective. The studies combining AuNPs and textile materials have opened valuable opportunities to develop antimicrobial materials for health and hygiene products, as infection control and barrier material, with improved properties. Future studies are needed to amplify the antimicrobial effect of AuNPs onto textiles and minimize the concerns related to the synthesis.

Abstract:

One of the recommendations for future textile development is the modification of textiles to produce materials for human performance (sports, medical, and protective). In the current work, modifying a polyester surface with silver nanoparticles improved antioxidant and antibacterial protection. For this purpose, ethylenediamine aminolysis was utilized as ligands to fabricate polyester textiles, trapping silver ions to further reduce silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). Dopamine (PDA) was used to provide antibacterial and antioxidant properties to the polyester textile by converting silver ions into AgNPs through its phenolic hydroxyl groups. Pristine polyester, polyester treated with ethylenediamine, and PDA-coated AgNP-loaded polyester ethylenediamine were characterized using SEM, EDX, FTIR, TGA, and tensile strength. The antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli were examined through the broth test. PDA-AgNPs composite nanocoating exhibited improved tensile strength and antibacterial and antioxidant properties, demonstrating that polyester with a PDA-AgNPs overlay may be used for long-term biomedical textiles.

Abstract:

Polypyrrole (PPy) nanoparticles (NPs) are used for the coating of materials, such as textiles, with biomedical applications, including wound care and tissue engineering, but they are also promising antibacterial agents. In this work, PPy NPs were used for the spray-coating of textiles with antimicrobial properties. The functional properties of the materials were verified, and their safety was evaluated. Two main exposure scenarios for humans were identified: inhalation of PPy NPs during spray (manufacturing) and direct skin contact with NPs-coated fabrics (use). Thus, the toxicity properties of PPy NPs and PPy-coated textiles were assessed by using in vitro models representative of the lung and the skin. The results from the materials’ characterization showed the stability of both the PPy NP suspension and the textile coating, even after washing cycles and extraction in artificial sweat. Data from an in vitro model of the air–blood barrier showed the low toxicity of these NPs, with no alteration of cell viability and functionality observed. The skin toxicity of PPy NPs and the coated textiles was assessed on a reconstructed human epidermis model following OECD 431 and 439 guidelines. PPy NPs proved to be non-corrosive at the tested conditions, as well as non-irritant after extraction in artificial sweat at two different pH conditions. The obtained data suggest that PPy NPs are safe NMs in applications for textile coating.

Abstract:

The study evaluates five types of commercial textiles with different cotton and polyester contents widely used in the garment industry. These textile samples have been subjected to treatment by the exhaustion method using zinc oxide nanoparticles (NP ZnO) (textile functionalization) with the aim of improving their efficiency in blocking UV radiation. The ZnO nanoparticles have been obtained by two methods: The green or also called biosynthesis (using the extract of Coriandrum sativum as an organic reducing agent), and the chemical method (using NaOH as an inorganic reducing agent). The results related to the green method show having achieved a defined geometric configuration with an average size of 97.77 nm (SD: 9.53). On the contrary, the nanostructures obtained by the chemical method show pentagonal configurations with average sizes of 113 nm (SD: 6.72). The textiles functionalized with NP ZnO obtained by biosynthesis showed a better efficiency in blocking ultraviolet radiation (UV).

Abstract:

It is well established that the water wettability of materials is governed by both the chemical composition and the geometrical microstructure of the surface.1 Traditional textile wet processing treatments do indeed rely fundamentally upon complete wetting out of a textile structure to achieve satisfactory performance.2 However, the complexities introduced through the heterogeneous nature of the fiber surfaces, the nature of the fiber composition and the actual construction of the textile material create difficulties in attempting to predict the exact wettability of a particular textile material. For many applications the ability of a finished fabric to exhibit water repellency (in other words low wettability) is essential2 and potential applications of highly water repellent textile materials include rainwear, upholstery, protective clothing, sportswear, and automobile interior fabrics. Recent research indicates that such applications may benefit from a new generation of water repellent materials that make use of the “lotus effect” to provide ultrahydrophobic textile materials.3,4 Ultrahydrophobic surfaces are typically termed as the surfaces that show a water contact angle greater than 150°C with very low contact angle hysteresis.4 In the case of textile materials, the level of hydrophobicity is often determined by measuring the static water contact angle only, since it is difficult to measure the contact angle hysteresis on a textile fabric because of the high levels of roughness inherent in textile structures.

Abstract:

Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) presence has considerable impact on microbial growth. In this paper, AgNPs was deposited on surface of four textiles to enhance the anti-microbial properties using immersion technique. Immersion technique was selected since it was simple, no need high energies, and no additional equipment required. In addition, AgNPs was synthesized using in situ-bio technique which is non-toxic, harmless and eco-friendly approach. Four textiles were evaluated, such as TA, TB, TC and TD. The finding projected that antifungal ability was correlated to the type of the textiles. TC textile has the significant antimicrobial activity with 12.33 ± 2.08 of inhibition zone which followed by TD (16.00 ± 3.46), TB (17.67 ± 7.09), and TA (17.67 ± 6.65). In addition, the surface bonding AgNPs on textile was possibility caused by the -OH group. It has a lone pair of electrons on the O atom that can interact with AgNPs to form –OAg bonds.

Abstract:

Nanotechnology is an emerging technology in textile sector for the fabrication of functional textiles with different properties such as antibacterial, hydrophobicity, UV-protection, flame retardancy, anti-static and self-cleaning. In current COVID-19 crises, the development of antimicrobial textiles through the deposition of nanoparticles has emerged as a research subject of particular interest. Recently, the green-synthesis of nanoparticles from plant extracts has become an effective alternative to conventional physical and chemical synthesis methods due to being environmentally benign and nontoxic. In this review article, the significance of nanotechnology in antibacterial finishing of textiles, mechanism of antibacterial activity of nanoparticles, significance of green synthesis methods for nanoparticles have been discussed. The green-synthesis of different nanoparticles from the citrus plant extracts and their application on textiles for imparting antibacterial activity is reviewed in particular. The chemical composition of citrus plant extracts and their role as bioreductants in the synthesis of nanoparticles is also highlighted. Moreover, different qualitative and quantitative standard testing protocols employed for the antimicrobial characterization of plant extracts and textiles have been discussed. The major challenges and limitations associated with the plant-based biosynthesis of nanoparticles have also been highlighted.

Abstract:

Textile industries are hailed as one of the major environmental polluters in the world, owing to their release of undesirable dye effluents. Synthetic dyes do not adhere to fabric firmly and are released into the aquatic ecosystem as effluent. Consequently, the consistent release of wastewater from numerous textile industries without previous treatment has detrimental effects on the ecosystem and human health. Treatment methods currently being used fail to degrade the dye effluents and have their own shortcomings. Immobilized nanoparticles have been extensively studied for dye remediation because of their many advantages over conventional methods. The present study aimed to compare the efficiency of two different carrier matrices [namely Poly(vinylidene fluoride) and Polyurethane] for iron nanoparticle and their decolorization activity on an azo dye (RED ME4BL). Scanning Electron Microscopy was carried out to show the deposition of iron nanoparticles on the membrane. The reaction kinetics of the bare nanoparticles were compared with that of the immobilized nanoparticles, and all were found to follow pseudo-second-order kinetics. Polyurethane immobilized iron nanoparticles showed a significant degradation of RED ME4bl than the Poly(vinylidene fluoride) immobilized iron and bare nanoparticles. This paper also demonstrates a relatively newer method for nanoparticle immobilisation using the synthetic polyurethane form.

Abstract:

Magneto-responsive textiles have emerged lately as an important carrier in various fields, including biomedical engineering. To date, most research has been performed on single magnetic fibers and focused mainly on the physical characterization of magnetic textiles. Herein, from simple woven and non-woven textiles we engineered materials with magnetic properties that can become potential candidates for a smart magnetic platform for heating treatments. Experiments were performed on tissue-mimicking materials to test the textiles’ heating efficiency in the site of interest. When the heat was induced with magneto-responsive textiles, the temperature increase in tissue-mimicking phantoms depended on several factors, such as the type of basic textile material, the concentration of magnetic nanoparticles deposited on the textile’s surface, and the number of layers covering the phantom. The values of temperature elevation, achieved with the use of magnetic textiles, are sufficient for potential application in magnetic hyperthermia therapies and as heating patches or bandages.

Due to the advantages of both the chitosan and the nanomaterial, chitosan nanoparticle has a broad application in a lot of fields, such as medicine carrier, food process, cosmetics and agriculture protect. And there also appears a lot of research about chitosan nanoparticle in textile finishing in recent years. In former research, steady state chitosan nanoparticles were prepared by ionotropic gelation method in dispersion system. In this paper, in order to confirm the preparation of low molecular weight chitosan nanoparticle, it was also characterized by Fourier Transform Infrared (FT-IR) Spectrometry, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM). Focusing on the application value, chitosan nanoparticles dispersion solution were used as one kind of textile finishing agent to modifyB.morisilk fabrics in order to realize the functionalization of silk fabrics. The wrinkle resistance and bacteria repellency of silk fabrics were tested in the paper. The results showed that chitosan nanoparticles were successfully prepared and confirmed accrording to the XRD, FT-IR and TEM tests. In addition, compared with the ordinaryB. morisilk fabric and theB. morisilk fabric treated with chitosan accordingly, theB. morisilk fabrics treated with chitosan nanoparticle dispersion system had better wrinkle resistance and bacteria repellency.

Abstract:

In recent years, new textile materials have been developed through the use of nanotechnology-based tools. The development of textile surfaces with self-cleaning properties has a large combined potential to reduce the environmental impact related to pollution. In this research work, three types of textiles substrates (cotton, Entretela, and polylactic acid (PLA)) were functionalized with titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiO2) using chemical and mechanical processes (padding). During the functionalization process, two different methods were used, both of which allowed a good fixation of nanoparticles of TiO2on textile substrates. The samples were examined for morphology and for photocatalytic properties under visible light irradiation. A study aimed at evaluating the effect of pH of the aqueous solution of TiO2nanoparticles was performed in order to promote interaction between TiO2and the dye solution rhodamine B (Rh-B). The TiO2nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The measurement of the zeta potential of the TiO2nanoparticle solution proved to be always positive and have low colloidal stability. Chromatography (HPLC and GC-MS) analyses confirm that oxalic acid is the intermediate compound formed during the photodegradation process.

Abstract:

Commercial P25 TiO2 nanoparticles are widely exploited as an efficient photocatalyst. In the textile domain, these nanoparticles are used for the production of self-cleaning, highly UV protective textiles, with an antimicrobial activity. The disposed textile products may end up in a landfill where they are subjected to the biodegradation process. Considering the importance of the later, this study discusses the biodegradation behaviour of cotton fabric impregnated with commercial P25 TiO2 nanoparticles. Photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanoparticles immobilized on cotton fabric was proved by the photodegradation of dyes C.I. Acid Orange 7 and methylene blue in aqueous solution. Biodegradation of fabrics was assessed by soil burial test in periods of 3, 9 and 18 days. Chemical and morphological changes induced by biodegradation were analyzed by FTIR, SEM and EDS. A colour of the samples gradually changed from white to yellow/brown due to rotting. SEM analysis revealed a severe destruction of the control and impregnated cotton fibres after 18 days of soil burial which was in line with visual appearance of completely damaged fabrics. The results confirmed that biodegradation behaviour of both the control and impregnated sample was equivalent, indicating that P25 TiO2 nanoparticles did not inhibit the biodegradation process of cellulose.

The control of microbial proliferation is a constant battle, especially in the medical field where surfaces, equipment, and textiles need to be cleaned on a daily basis. Silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) possess well-documented antimicrobial properties and by combining them with a physical matrix, they can be applied to various surfaces to limit microbial contamination. With this in mind, a rapid and easy way to implement a photoinduced approach was investigated for textile functionalization with a silver@polymer self-assembled nanocomposite. By exposing the photosensitive formulation containing a silver precursor, a photoinitiator, and acrylic monomers to a UV source, highly reflective metallic coatings were obtained directly on the textile support. After assessing their optical and mechanical properties, the antimicrobial properties of the functionalized textiles were tested against Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Candida albicans (C. albicans) strains. In addition to being flexible and adherent to the textile substrates, the nanocomposites exhibited remarkable microbial growth inhibitory effects.

Abstract:

Dissolved air flotation represents an important stage for wastewater treatment and was used during the last sixty years for different pollutants such as: suspended solids, greases, oils etc. Nowadays, the dissolved air systems are generally applied in industrial wastewater treatment plants, where the amount of pollutants is above the average (textile and leather industry). The research team members developed an innovative DAF unit and realized a laboratory demonstrator (figure 1). The laboratory installation was tested and the efficiency of wastewater treatment was demonstrated. The latest researches proved that flotation reagents have an essential role in the removal of different pollutants. The scientific literature demonstrates that these reagents can be used to remove the pollutants as sludge or foam, Reagents are divided into modifiers, flocculants, depressants, collectors and frothers, depending on their role the flotation process. Nanomaterial utilization in wastewater treatment has become an intensely studied topic. Collectors reagents, based on hydrophobic nanoparticles, can adsorb a larger quantity of pollutants due to the hydrophilic particle surfaces that facilitate the attachment of pollutants to air bubbles generated by the DAF unit. In the present paper, the researchers present that the role of nanoparticles is to facilitate particle-bubble attachment and/or to minimize detachment. The goal of the study is to consider the influence of nanoparticle parameters on the various stages of particle flotation to demonstrate the key role of nanoparticles in removal of pollutants from textile wastewaters.

The world is ever developing with new inventions and technology to cater the changing lifestyles of people. The COVID-19 pandemic has stressed an increased importance of health products. One such innovation is antiviral textile which are which are capable of preventing the microbes or viruses to contact the surface of textiles. Natural fibre textiles are the best medium for the growth of many microbes which leads to degradation and unpleasant odours. To prevent all these undesirable effects, textiles are impregnated with antiviral nanoparticles in the fibres or fabrics. The use of nanoparticles makes the textiles antimicrobial, anti odour, water and stain repellent. In the last few decades, natural polymers have gained much attention among scientific communities owing to their therapeutic potential. Antiviral textiles are classified into a few broad groups, such as polymeric materials, metal ions/metal oxides, and functional nanomaterials, based on the type of materials used at the virus contamination sites. This review is an overview of antiviral textiles and their types, properties, structure of polymers and nanoparticles involved and their significance.

Engineering of superhydrophobic textile surfaces has gained significant scientific and industrial interest for its potential applications in outdoor wear and protective textiles, resulting in many publications especially on theoretical models and fabrication methods. In this review, progress in theoretical definitions to explain the wetting behavior and realization techniques for superhydrophobic textile surfaces is discussed. Firstly, theoretical models from Young, Wenzel, and Cassie-Baxter to the more recent re-entrant angle model are overviewed to understand the design strategy for superhydrophobic surfaces. Secondly, major surface manipulation techniques to produce superhydrophobic textiles were reviewed for: modification of surface energy, addition of surface roughness by depositing or growing nanoparticles either in spherical form or in high aspect ratio, etching by plasma or caustic chemicals. Particular attention is paid to evaluation methods to measure the level of hydrophobicity for superhydrophobic textile surfaces, as a limitation of static water contact angle (WCA) on differentiating superhydrophobic surfaces has been reported elsewhere. The challenges in application of superhydrophobic textiles to clothing materials in terms of comfort properties and durability are discussed with the suggestion of further research opportunities to expand the application.

Nanoparticles are increasingly utilized as coating materials to improve the properties of polyester textiles. In this work, polyester textiles were successfully fabricated, with hydrazide groups serving as ligands for the entrapment of sliver ions and subsequent reduction to AgNPs. Polydopamine (PDA) was used in this work to impart antibacterial and antioxidant properties to the polyester textiles through its phenolic hydroxyl groups, which can convert silver ions into AgNPs. Moreover, glucose was used as a reducing agent to create AgNPs-loaded polyester hydrazide. ATR-FTIR, SEM, EDX, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and tensile strength were used to characterize the pristine polyester, the polyester hydrazide, the PDA-coated AgNP-loaded polyester hydrazide and the AgNP-loaded polyester hydrazide. A broth test was also used to investigate the textile’s antimicrobial activities against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus. Overall, the composite nanocoating with PDA-AgNPs demonstrated good tensile strength and antioxidant and antibacterial characteristics, implying the practicality of PDA-AgNPs coating polyester for biomedical textile applications.

Abstract:

Propensity of a textile material to evaporate moisture from its surface, commonly referred to as the ‘moisture management’ ability, is an important characteristic that dictates the applicability of a given textile material in the activewear garment industry. Here, an infrared absorbing nanoparticle impregnated self-heating (IRANISH) fabric is developed by impregnating tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) nanoparticles into a polyester fabric through a facile high-pressure dyeing approach. It is observed that under simulated solar radiation, the impregnated ITO nanoparticles can absorb IR radiation, which is effectively transferred as thermal energy to any moisture present on the fabric. This transfer of thermal energy facilitates the enhanced evaporation of moisture from the IRANISH fabric surface and as per experimental findings, a 54 ± 9% increase in the intrinsic drying rate is observed for IRANISH fabrics compared with control polyester fabrics that are treated under identical conditions, but in the absence of nanoparticles. Approach developed here for improved moisture management via the incorporation of IR absorbing nanomaterials into a textile material is novel, facile, efficient and applicable at any stage of garment manufacture. Hence, it allows us to effectively overcome the limitations faced by existing yarn-level and structural strategies for improved moisture management.

Abstract:

The fouling of surfaces such as textiles is a major health challenge, and there is a continuous effort to develop materials and processes to overcome it. In consideration of this, this study regards the development of antifouling functional nanoencapsulated finishing for the cotton textile fabric by employing a layer-by-layer dip coating technique. Antifouling textile finishing was formulated by inducing the nanoencapsulation of the antifouling functional group inside the hydrophobic polymeric shell. Cotton fabric was taken as a substrate to incorporate antibacterial functionality by alternatively fabricating multilayers of antifouling polymeric formulation (APF) and polyelectrolyte solution. The surface morphology of nanoencapsulated finished textile fabric was characterized through scanning electron microscopy to confirm the uniform distribution of nanoparticles on the cotton textile fabric. Optical profilometry and atomic force microscopy studies indicated increased surface roughness in the coated textile substrate as compared to the uncoated textile. The surface thickness of the fabricated textile increased with the number of deposited bilayers on the textile substrate. Surface hydrophobicity increased with number of coating bilayers with θ values of x for single layer, up to y for 20 bilayers. The antibacterial activity of the uncoated and layer-by-layer coated finished textile was also evaluated. It was significant and exhibited a significant zone of inhibition against microbial strains Gram-positive S. aureus and Gram-negative E. coli. The bilayer coating exhibited water repellency, hydrophobicity, and antibacterial activity. Thus, the fabricated textile could be highly useful for many industrial and biomedical applications.

Abstract:

The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of new hybrid composites of TiO2 or SiO2 nanoparticles with poly(2,2’- bithiophene) on 50% cotton/50% polyester fabric and sheep skin leather surface properties. The dispersion-based newly made nanocomposites were analyzed to determine conductivity, particle size, polydispersity and Zeta potential. The finished textile and leather materials were characterized in terms of functionalization treatments performance by: surface resistivity, water contact behaviour, physical-mechanical characteristics and photocatalytic properties. SEM analysis was used to investigate the distribution of nanoparticles on the textile and leather materials surface. Textile materials treated with SiO2/poly(2,2’-bithiophene) nanocomposite with concentration 98 wt% nanoparticles of SiO2 and leather treated with poly SiO2/poly(2,2’-bithiophene) nanocomposite with concentration of 95 wt% nanoparticles of SiO2 showed lower resistivity values, confirming the conductive properties of silica. The higher photodegradation efficiency of functionalized materials has been obtained for textile material treated with poly TiO2/(2,2’-bithiophene)with concentration of 95 wt% nanoparticles of TiO2 and for leather material treated with TiO2/poly(2,2’-bithiophene) with concentration of 98 wt% nanoparticles of TiO2, respectively.

Abstract:

Antimicrobial fabrics have gained considerable interest for use in different fields of application. However, most of these antimicrobials have many disadvantages viz., toxicity on non-targets, environment, and low durability of finished products, etc. The study aimed to develop an ecofriendly nanoparticle that can be used both as an antimicrobial and coloring agent. Fungi are known to produce a wide spectrum of colors as secondary metabolites, and they are also capable of creating nanoparticles. Thermomyces sp. is capable of producing a yellow pigment along with the ability to synthesize silver nanoparticles. UV-Vis spectroscopy, FT-IR, and TEM were used to analyze the synthesized silver nanoparticles. The size of the silver nanoparticles was found to be between 10 and 50 nm, and nanoparticles treated cloth displayed 90% antibacterial action against Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa.

Abstract:

Materials behave in a different way when they are in their nano sizes. Nanomaterials encompass a high surface-to-volume ratio, a high adsorption capacity, high sensitivity, and reactivity, hence these can be efficiently used for textile wastewater treatment. Numerous studies have shown that nanoparticles can effectively eliminate various pollutants of domestic and industrial effluent. Nanoparticles are conventionally synthesized by physical and chemical methods but these methods use toxic chemicals, complicated procedures, and expensive materials. Presently, enzymatic processes are the most preferred method as they are economically cheap and environmentally sustainable. Microorganisms, break down the metal salts into metal nanoparticles, which can be isolated and used for textile dye degradation. This review epitomizes the various biosynthesized metal and metal oxide nanoparticles by different microorganisms and if they are efficient to degrade diverse textile dyes.
