Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the incorporation of triclosan based chemical into cyclodextrin based commercial product, bonded onto cotton fabric with and without plasma modification. The treated samples were characterized by SEM analysis. The antibacterial activities of the washed and unwashed samples were evaluated according to the AATCC Test Method 147-1998 and some physical properties were also investigated. It was observed that after the combination process of triclosan, cyclodextrin and atmospheric plasma modification, cotton fabric was able to retain its antibacterial activity up to the 5 washing cycles at 60°C.

Pamuklu Kumaşlarda Antibakteriyel Bitim İşlemi için Atmosferik Plazma ve Kimyasal İşlemlerin Kombinasyonu

Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı, triklosan esaslı kimyasal ile siklodekstrin esaslı ticari ürün birleşimin plazma modifikasyonu yapılarak ve yapılmayarak pamuklu kumaşlara bağlanmasının incelenmesidir. İşlem gören numuneler SEM analizi ile karakterize edilmiştir. Yıkanmış ve yıkanmamış kumaşların antibakteriyel aktiviteleri AATCC Test Metot 147-1998’e göre değerlendirilmiş ve numunelerin bazı fiziksel özellikleri de incelenmiştir. Triklosan, siklodekstrin ve atmosferik plazma kombinasyonu ile pamuklu kumaşların antibakteriyel aktivitesini 60°C’de 5 yıkamaya kadar koruduğu gözlenmiştir.
