Synthesis of Novel Bio-Composite Material for Functional Finishing of Cellulosic Textile Substrate

Development and useful utilization of materials from agricultural wastes biomass feedstock for the textile-finishing industry is great significance to research community worldwide. In this work, a sustainable green chitosan waste onion peel extract (CS-OS) composite material prepared by co-precipitation method applied onto cotton fabrics development antibacterial radical-scavenging textiles. The was loaded with without citric acid as cross-linker obtain final textile substrate durable functions. formation coated were examined using SEM, FT-IR, TGA techniques. Antioxidant activity finished evaluated DPPH assay, tests performed colony counting method. results revealed that composite-treated showed good activities. It found acid-cross-linked displayed enhanced antioxidant properties.
