Silver and Zinc Oxide Nano Particle Application to the Cotton Fabric Activated with Corona Plasma

Abstract

In this study, durable application of silver nano particles (Ag-NP) and zinc oxide nano particles (ZnO-NP) to the cotton fabric activated by corona plasma was investigated. The aim is to produce antibacterial fabric. In the study, washing durable application of the nano particles to the cotton fabric activated by corona plasma was investigated when a cross-linker did not use. The padding method was used for nano particle application. The presence and durability of the nano particles on the fabric were studied by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and Energy-Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDX) analysis. Antibacterial activity of the fabric was determined by a quantitative test method AATCC Test Method 100. Besides bursting tenacity and air permeability properties of the finished fabrics, whiteness and yellowness index were measured. According to the test and analysis results, washing durable application both of silver and zinc oxide nano particles to the corona plasma pretreated fabrics were carried out. Antibacterial activity of the fabrics against to S.aureus gram positive bacteria was determined

Korona Plazma ile Aktive Edilmiş Pamuklu Kumaşa Gümüş ve Çinko Oksit Nano Partikül Aplikasyonu

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, korona plazma ile muamele edilerek aktive edilmiş pamuklu kumaşlara gümüş nano partiküller (Ag-NP) ve çinko oksit nano partiküller (ZnO-NP)'in yıkamaya karşı kalıcı olarak uygulanması araştırılmıştır. Amaç antibakteriyel özellikli kumaş üretimidir. Çalışmada çapraz bağlayıcı kimyasal madde kullanılmasına gerek olmadan nano partiküllerin korona plazma ile aktive edilmiş pamuk kumaşa yıkamaya karşı dayanıklı olacak şekilde uygulanması araştırılmıştır. Nano partiküllerin uygulanmasında emdirme metodu kullanılmıştır. Kumaşlarda nano partikül varlığı ve kalıcılığı taramalı elektron mikroskobu (SEM) ve enerji dağılımlı X-ışınları (EDX) analizleri ile araştırılmıştır. Kumaşların antibakteriyel aktivitesi AATCC 100 kantitatif test metodu ile belirlenmiştir. Bitim işlemi uygulanmış kumaşların patlama mukavemeti, hava geçirgenlik özellikleri ile birlikte beyazlık ve sarılık indeksi değerleri de ölçülmüştür. Test ve analiz sonuçlarına göre hem gümüş hem de çinko oksit nano partiküller korona ile ön işlem görmüş pamuk kumaşa yıkama dayanımı olacak şekilde aplikasyonu gerçekleştirilmiştir. Kumaşların gram pozitif S.aureus bakterisine karşı aktiviteye sahip olduğu belirlenmiştir.
