Study of easy care and biostatic properties of finished cotton fabric with polyamino carboxylic acids

Abstract

Polyamino carboxylic acids (PACAs) were used as novel finishing agents to create easy care and biostatic properties of cotton fabric. PACAs were synthesized by carboxylation of polyvinylamine with bromoacetic acid and 3-bromopropionic acid. The easy care effect was evaluated by measuring the wrinkle recovery angle and biostatic effect was estimated by the Formazan test. It was found that using PACAs create wrinkle resistant and biostatic cotton. Both properties were durable to multiple laundry wash. The impact of this finishing agent on the physical properties of the cotton was studied by evaluating the tensile strength and whiteness index of the finished cotton. The results showed that the use of PACAs as finishing agent did not make a considerable change on the physical properties of cotton.

The prediction of optimal conditions for the surface grafting ofβ-cyclodextrin onto silk fabrics by an artificial neural network (ANN)

“…It has been found that PCAs form covalent cross-links and do not allow polymeric chains to slide, share and absorb any stresses (Haji and Payvandy, 2019). In this research, as there was no crosslink between b -CD and the silk chains, the loss in BTCA and the tensile strength of the treated samples increased (Dehabadi et al, 2013).…”

“…When β -CD was combined with BTCA, the loss of tensile strength emerged to depend on β -CD, BTCA and NTO concentrations. When an extra amount of β -CD, in comparison to BTCA, was used, the extra CDs reacted with BTCA and the tensile strength of the treated samples increased (Dehabadi et al , 2013).…”

Latest Developments on Crease Resistance Processes for Cellulosic Fabrics

“…Örneğin polivinilaminin karboksillenmesiyle poliamino karboksilik asit elde edilebilmekte bu da selüloz molekülünün hidroksil grupları ile reaksiyon vererek buruşmazlık sağlayabilmektedir [27], [29].…”

“…2013 yılında yaptıkları diğer çalışmada da pamuklu kumaşa kolay bakım ve biyostatik özellikler kazandırmak için; polivinilaminin, bromoasetik asit ve 3-bromopropiyonik asit ile karboksillenmesi yoluyla elde ettikleri poliamino karboksilik asidi kullanmışlardır. Poliaminokarboksilik asit, pamuklu kumaşlara çoklu yıkamalara karşı dayanıklı buruşmazlık etkisi ve biyostatik özellik kazandırmış, kopma mukavemeti ve beyazlık özelliklerini ise çok fazla etkilememiştir [27].…”

Antibacterial and Washing Resistance Improvement of Cotton Fabric Using Some Metal Oxides

“…In recent years many examples of antibacterial activity of Zinc oxide(ZnO) 8-10 ,16-18 . Titanium oxide(TiO2 )and other metal oxides have been described in literature [18][19][20][21][22][23] . It was demonstrated that the highest activity against bacteria was exhibited by Ag nanoparticles (NPs) with dimensions of 1-10 nm 24 and also by TiO2 NPs with dimensions of below 20 nm 25 .…”
