Selected applications of nanotechnology in textiles

Wong Y. W. H., Yuen C. W. M., Leung M. Y. S., Ku S. K. A., Lam H. L. I.

Autex Research Journal

2006

Vol. 6, no. 1

The use of nanotechnology in the textile industry has increased rapidly due to its unique and valuable properties. The present status of nanotechnology use in textiles is reviewed, with an emphasis on improving various properties of textiles.

The possibility of low-temperature plasma treated wool fabric for industrial use

Kan C. W., Chan K., Yuen C. W. M.

Autex Research Journal

2004

Vol. 4, no. 1

37--44

In this paper, low-temperature plasma (LTP) treatment was applied to a wool fabric. The LTP-treated wool fabric was tested according to different international standard testing methods, and the results were compared with the industrial requirements (ASTM requirements). It was revealed that the LTP-treated wool fabric did meet industrial requirements. The results of the investigation are thoroughly discussed in this paper.

Surface characterisation of low-temperature plasma treated wool fibre

Previous investigation results revealed that after the Low-Temperature Plasma (LTP) treatment, the hydrophilicity of wool fibres was improved significantly. Such an improvement enhances the wool dyeing and finishing processes which might be due to the wool surface changing to a more reactive one. In this paper, wool fibres were treated with LTP with different gases, namely oxygen, nitrogen and a mixture of gases (25% hydrogen, 75% nitrogen). Investigations showed that the chemical composition of the wool fibre surface varied differently with different plasma. The variation of surface composition influences the hydrophilicity of the wool fibres. The surface chemical composition of the LTP-treated wool fibres was characterised by different characterisation methods, namely FTIR-ATR, XPS and saturated adsorption value. The experimental results of these methods are thoroughly discussed.
