Traditional Process

To obtain antibacterial properties for colored cotton fabrics, vat dyes were chosen to dye cotton because they can avoid serious discoloration during chlorination. In this study, we synthesized a reactive N-halamine precursor, 4-(4-(2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-4-piperidinol)-6-chloro-1,3,5-triazinylamino)-benzenesulfonate (BTMPT), and coated it on colored cotton fabrics that were dyed with three different vat dyes. The optimum pH for chlorination of the treated cotton fabrics was investigated. Chlorination at pH 11 achieved a small color difference and greater than 0.2% of active chlorine loading. When challenged, the chlorinated fabrics inactivated all inoculated Staphylococcus aureus (Gram-positive) and Escherichia coli (Gram-negative) within 5 min. The treated cotton fabric had greater breaking strength than those treated with the traditional process, as well as good washing stability.

Polyelectrolyte Multilayer

Weak polyelectrolyte multilayer films containing silver nanoparticles are shown to have enhanced ability to self-heal when exposed to water when compared to the films assembled without particles.

Short Service Life

Superhydrophobic cotton fabrics have been widely explored for their excellent properties, although there are still a few limitations in the practical applications for the reasons of poor environmental performance and short service life. In this study, the hexadecyltrimethoxysilane emulsion was prepared using O2-plasma and ultrasound for the superhydrophobic functional finishing of raw cotton fabric by immersion method. The prepared cotton fabrics showed a superior hydrophobicity with water contact angles larger than 156.0°, as well as an excellent self-healing ability. This self-healing ability was gained by simple heating treatment, which could restore the superhydrophobicity of the hydrophilic cotton fabric damaged by abrasion or O2-plasma treatment. The superhydrophobic cotton fabrics demonstrated excellent washing durability, which can withstand 50 times accelerated laundering cycles. Besides this, the superhydrophobic coatings also displayed fair chemical stability in strong acidic and alkaline solutions. The prepared nonfluorinated superhydrophobic cotton fabric with self-healing ability shows a potential for practical functional textile application.
