cotton/polyester knitted fabrics as a major production of textile industry was treated with titanium dioxide nanosized particles. the treated fabric with nanosized tio2 became whiter with a good self-cleaning property. also the discoloration of reactive black 5 dye was studied and reported. the stabilization of tio2 on cotton/polyester knitted fabrics by citric acid (ca) with sodium hypophospha...

Nano-ZnO was prepared by direct precipitation method with zinc chloride and sodium carbonate anhydrous as raw materials, and its particle size and dispersion were characterized by TEM. The effects of concentration and the ratio of reactants and reaction temperature on its dispersion in aqueous solution were analyzed and the best reaction conditions were as follows: reaction temperature 60 , ult...

Flammability properties of plasma pretreated cotton fabrics subjected to flame-retardant treatment were studied. Plasma pretreatment, using an atmospheric pressure plasma jet (APPJ), was applied to cotton fabrics to enhance material properties, while retaining inherent advantages of the substrates. An organic phosphorus compound (flame-retardant agent, FR) together with a melamine resin (crossl...

Nano-cellulose materials are widely believed to have the potential to push polymer mechanical properties. The cotton cellulose was dissolved in ionic liquid (1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride ([Bmim]Cl)), and then was isolated by high pressure homogenization in a homogeneous media. The nano-cellulose was obtained at 80 MPa for 30 cycles. The geometry and microstructure of the cellulose nano-...

Macroand crystalline structure, as well as chemical composition of fibers related to various types and sorts of Israeli cottons, both white and naturally colored, were investigated. The differences in structural parameters and chemical compositions of the cotton fibers were evaluated. Samples of cotton of the “Pima”-type had long, thin and strong fibers with highly ordered supermolecular struct...

Ultra-violet protection and self-cleaning action of nano zinc oxide (ZnO) and titanium di-oxide (TiO2) with acrylic binder has been assessed on the cotton fabric using pad-dry-cure method. Different precursors, such as zinc acetate and titanium tetrachloride have been used to synthesize nanoparticles. Zinc acetate is synthesized into nanoparticle by wet chemical technique and titanium tetrachlo...

fe3o4-containing cotton-like mesoporous silica system (fe3o4@ncsm) was studied with regard to its performance towards the photodecolorization of bromothymol blue (btb) aqueous solution. the surface properties of the functionalized catalyst were analyzed by a series of characterization techniques like ftir, xrd, bet, sem and tem. the n2 adsorption–desorption analysis shows that the mesostructure...

In this study CuO nano sheets were prepared using the cellulose extracted from green synthesis (cotton) as a novel me project. Structural properties were examined using X-Ray Diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), and Ultra Violet (UV-Vis). The optimum copper oxide peak was at 2 theta 〖35.44〗^°corresponding to (1 ̅11) while for the cellulose was 〖22.8〗^°correspon...
