Electroless deposition was successfully applied in developing crystalline particles of zinc oxide onto polyester textile materials; this deposition is here presented in comparison with other materials made from poly(lactic acid), polyamide or hemp. Structural and spectroscopic characterization of the raw and deposited samples has been performed. The structure of zinc oxide particles was that of wurtzite type as indicated by X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Crystallites were 20–500 nm in diameter and up to 1 µm in length. The grown particles cover the fibers not only on the fabric surface but in the textile depth. Contact angle measurement by the sessile drop method was used to study the wettability behavior of the investigated composite systems. The hierarchical roughness structure generates superhydrophobic properties onto polyester fabrics, for which water contact angles exceed 150°. The other functionalized samples also become more hydrophobic after deposition. Cassie‐Baxter model was found suitable to describe the behavior, though the fraction of surface occupied by the water–solid interface is high enough. The electroless deposition technique applied previously for cotton fabrics was once more proven to be highly reproducible, easy scalable, and cheap, allowing a wide range of applications. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Plasma technology applied to textiles is a dry, environmentally‐ and worker‐friendly method to achieve surface alteration without modifying the bulk properties of different materials. In particular, atmospheric non‐thermal plasmas are suited because most textile materials are heat sensitive polymers and applicable in a continuous processes. In the last years plasma technology has become a very active, high growth research field, assuming a great importance among all available material surface modifications in textile industry. The main objective of this review is to provide a critical update on the current state of art relating plasma technologies applied to textile industry.

Plasma modification of powder has recently attracted much interest because of new prospects of the interfacial properties supervision. There was mostly used the low-pressure plasma modification in fluidized bed, but for industrial-scale application the employment of mechanical stirring also appears to be very promising at the moment. It was shown that application of plasma modification methods led to substantial process time reduction. In case of the polyethylene, parts sintered from the plasma-modified polyethylene powder were characterized with high surface tension, which allowed e.g. direct painting or adhesive bonding without any additional pre-treatment. Plasma modification also significantly enhanced the adhesion of the polymer to the substrate. Adhesion and wettability measurements were carried out to reveal surface modification of plasma treatment of HDPE powders. This paper describes results of the polyethylene powder plasma treatment in microwave low-pressure plasma and discusses possibilities of its application.
