Abstrakty

The protection provided by clothing against ultraviolet (UV) radiation has been the subject of considerable recent research. However, there is a lack of information concerned with the effect of weave structures and zinc oxide nanoparticles on these properties. A series of cotton fabrics differing in weave structure was produced and treated with zinc oxide nanoparticles. These fabrics were spectrophotometrically assessed and the UV protection factor calculated. It was found that while there was no significant difference in the Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) in untreated samples, in samples treated with zinc oxide nanoparticles an increase was noticed in satin and granite weaves. There is no relationship between weave parameters and the UPF. Also between porosity and the UPF, no relationship was noticed. Thus the present study provides design guidelines for clothing manufacturers.

Ochrona zapewniana przez odzież przed promieniowaniem ultrafioletowym (UV) była przedmiotem wielu badań. Brak jest jednak informacji dotyczących wpływu struktur splotów i nanocząstek tlenku cynku na te właściwości. Przedmiotem pracy było wytworzenie tkanin bawełnianych różniących się strukturą splotów, a następnie poddano te tkaniny obróbce nanocząstkami tlenku cynku. Tkaniny te zostały ocenione spektrofotometrycznie i obliczono współczynnik ochrony przed promieniowaniem UV. Stwierdzono, że chociaż nie było istotnej różnicy we współczynniku ochrony przed promieniowaniem ultrafioletowym (UPF) w nieobrabianych próbkach, w próbkach obrabianych nanocząsteczkami tlenku cynku zauważono wzrost w splocie satynowym i granitowym. Stwierdzono, że nie ma związku pomiędzy parametrami splotu a UPF. Również między porowatością a UPF nie zauważono żadnego związku. Przedstawione wyniki badań mogą być źródłem wytycznych projektowych dla producentów odzieży.
