Abstract

Increasing environmental awareness and the high demand for alternatives to non-renewable petroleum resources have led to

extensive research focused on the concept of biomass-based bio-renewable materials. As well as constantly increasing environmental

pollution, toxicological effects of industrial waste and the reflection of decreasing natural resources, environmental friendly production

methods and the usage of biopolymers obtained from sustainable resources became an important issue in textile industry. Chitosan has

several application areas in textile industry because of its biodegradability, biocompatibility and non-toxicological effects on living organisms. With the introduction of nanotechnology into our lives, chitosan nano particles were obtained in order to take the advantages

of macro-sized chitosan more effectively. Therefore, better results could be obtained by using less amount of chitosan. Although there

are several methods to reduce the size of chitosan, ionic gelation is the most commonly used method since it is easy to apply and it does

not require the use of toxic chemicals In this study, the different forms of chitosan were applied onto the cotton fabrics by environmental

friendly methods such as plasma and sol gel technology as an alternative to conventional finishing methods. The treated fabrics were

compared in terms of their antibacterial activity, SEM, XPS and surface friction properties.

PAMUKLU KUMAŞLARA FARKLI YÖNTEMLERLE BİYOPOLİMER UYGULAMASININ ANALİZİ

Abstract

Artan çevre bilinci ve yenilenemeyen petrol kaynaklarına alternatiflerine olan yüksek talep, biyokütle esaslı biyolojik olarak

yenilenebilir maddeler kavramına odaklanan kapsamlı araştırmalara yol açmaktadır. Bunun yanısıra artan çevre kirliliği, endüstriyel

atıkların toksikolojik etkileri ve azalan doğal kaynakların yansıması, çevre dostu üretim yöntemleri ve sürdürülebilir kaynaklardan elde

edilen biyopolimerlerin kullanımı tekstil endüstrisinde önemli bir konudur. Canlılara karşı toksik olmayan, biyobozunur ve

biyouyumluluğa sahip olan kitosan tekstil endüstrisinde geniş kullanım alanı bulmuştur. Nanoteknolojinin hayatımıza girmesiyle birlikte

kitosandan daha etkin bir şekilde yararlanmak için boyutu küçültülerek daha az miktarda kullanarak daha etkili sonuçlar veren

nanokitosan elde edilmiştir. Kitosanın boyutunu küçültmek için birçok yöntem kullanılmasına rağmen iyonik jelleşme yöntemi kolay

olması ve toksik kimyasal madde kullanımı gerektirmemesi nedeniyle en çok kullanılan yöntemdir. Bu çalışmada, geleneksel terbiye

yöntemlerine alternatif olarak plazma ve sol jel teknolojisi gibi çevreye duyarlı yöntemlerle pamuklu kumaşlara farklı türde kitosan

uygulanmıştır. İşlem gören kumaşların antibakteriyel aktivite, SEM, XPS ve yüzey sürtünme özellikleri açısından karşılaştırılmıştır.
