Abstract
- Abstract: To enhance the functional properties of viscose fabrics, Tinosan® CEL (TC), Ag, and TiO2 nano-particles were incorporated as functional additives in different easy care finishing formulations alone and in admixtures. Results indicated that padding viscose fabrics in finishing bath containing 10g/l TC and 60g/l dimethyloldihydroxyethylene urea (DMDHEU) enhances some performance as well as antibacterial properties of the treated fabrics. Moreover, incorporation of Ag or TiO2 nano-particles in the DMDHEU or DMDHEU/TC finishing baths enhances the functional properties of the treated samples such as antibacterial properties, UV-blocking properties, and/or self cleaning performance. Incorporation of poly (N-vinyl-2-pyrrolidone) in the aforementioned finishing formulations enhances these functional properties along with durability to wash. On the other hand, incorporation of Silicon®-SLH softener in finishing baths along with TC affects the performance and antibacterial properties of the treated fabrics. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
