“…Considering the higher electrical properties of treated cotton, excellent potential applications of the material are expected in the fields like sensors, supercapacitors, the electronic industry, and smart clothing as wearable textiles [29,33]. Moreover, both DMSO and SDBS also act as plasticizers that redirect cotton fibers in addition to stabilizing graphene at higher temperatures and allowing a regulated conduction mechanism deep inside through the improvement of bonds between cotton and graphene [34]. Increasing the concentration of graphene layers increases the stability of graphene in the cotton sample and fills the spaces between the fibers, thus enhancing the electrical conductivity of the fabric, as listed in Table 1.…”

Efficient energy storage is becoming a serious niche area nowadays due to exponential growth in energy consumption. Different approaches have been developed and implemented to improve the performance of the devices, in which improving conductivity is a major issue. In the present work, cotton fabric was converted into a conductive material by incorporating graphene, using the Layer-by-Layer (LBL) method, followed by heating at 100 °C. The electrical conductivity of the cotton using different concentrations of graphene was studied. The graphene-coated cotton, at the 17th layer, with a concentration of 168.36 wt.% resulted in a surface resistance of 0.644 Ω/sq and retained the maximum resistance even after two months. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy analysis (EDX) were employed to comprehend the surface morphology and elemental compositions. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, UV-vis absorption, and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to determine the structural analysis, which revealed a good dispersion of graphene in the cotton samples obtained through dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) doping, which reduced the ripple of the cotton. The cotton fabric treated with graphene was thermally stable, as shown through thermal analysis. From the results obtained, it is evident that graphene-treated cotton fabric materials show tremendous potential for use in smart textiles and also as protective clothing.

The increase in the number of infectious diseases has exerted many negative consequences on human health. In this study, the antibacterial cotton fabric was fabricated for application in antibacterial products, contributing to the prevention of infectious diseases for humans. Particularly, ex-situ and in-situ dip-coating techniques were compared and utilized for the fabrication of the antibacterial cotton fabric. Besides, the effects of the concentrations of precursors, including graphene oxide (GO), silver nanoparticles (AgNPs), silver/ graphene oxide nanocomposite (Ag/GO), and dip-coating times were evaluated to determine the most appropriate preparation conditions. Therewithal, the resulting cotton fabric was modified with stearic acid (SA) to enhance the hydrophobicity, in which the concentration of the SA was also assessed. Additionally, the antibacterial performance of the prepared material was investigated against Gram-negative Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Gram-positive Staphylococcus aureus. Different analytical techniques such as scanning electron microscope, contact angle measurement, and color stability were also utilized for the comparison between different cotton fabrics. According to the obtained results, the dip-coated in-situ Ag/GO (in-situ-Ag/GO/cotton) fabrics showed better antibacterial performance than that of dip-coated ex-situ Ag/GO (ex-situ-Ag/GO/cotton) ones, which can be attributed to the even distribution of Ag/GO nanocomposite on the fabric prepared by the in-situ methods. According to the aforementioned results, the resulting antibacterial cotton fabric can be considered a promising material for the production of antibacterial face masks and protective clothing, which can be utilized in hospitals, textile industries, or the manufacture of sport gears.
