MEDİKAL TEKSTİLLER İÇİN DOĞAL MALZEME İÇERİKLİ FONKSİYONEL İPLİK ÜRETİMİ

Öz

Son yıllarda araştırmacılar, çevre üzerinde daha az olumsuz etkiye sahip hijyenik yeni ürünlerin geliştirilmesine odaklanmıştır. Bu nedenle doğal/çevre dostu malzemelerin kullanımı giderek yaygınlaşmakta ve bu malzemeler üzerine yapılan çalışmalar her geçen gün artmaktadır. Bu çalışmada, ayva çekirdeği jeli (QSG) ve kekik yağı gibi doğal malzemelerle yüklü tekstil malzemelerinin antibakteriyel aktivitesinin tıbbi tekstillerde kullanımı açısından incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmada, iplik/kumaş formunda kullanılabilmesi, gözenekli yapısı, geçirgenliği, esnekliği gibi avantajları nedeniyle QSG ve kekik yağının kesikli liflerden eğrilmiş ipliklere uygulanmasına odaklanmıştır. İplik üretimi için QSG ve kekik yağı dispersiyonları hazırlanmış ve ring iplik üretimi sırasında %100 akrilik elyaflara alternatif bir uygulama yöntemi ile uygulanmıştır. Üretilen ipliklerin çeşitli özellikleri analiz edilmiştir. SEM görüntüleri, elyaf yüzeyinin QSG ve kekik yağı ile kaplandığını göstermiştir. QSG'nin aksine, kekik yağı yüklü ipliklerin antibakteriyel aktivite özelliği sergilediği belirlenmiştir. Üretilen ipliklerin, mukavemet ve kopma uzamasında bir miktar azalma olmasına rağmen, tekstil işlemeye uygun gerilme özelliklerine sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Elde edilen sonuçlara dayanarak, doğal malzemeler içeren ipliklerin tedaviye alternatif veya tamamlayıcı bir yaklaşım sunabileceği düşünülmektedir.

FUNCTIONAL YARN PRODUCTION CONTAINING NATURAL MATERIALS FOR MEDICAL TEXTILES

Öz

In recent years, researchers have focused on the development of hygienic new products with less negative impact on the environment. For this reason, the use of natural/environmentally friendly materials is becoming more widespread and studies on these materials are increasing day by day. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the antibacterial activity of textile materials loaded with natural materials such as quince seed gel (QSG) and thyme oil, with a view to their use in medical textiles. This study focused on the application of QSG and thyme oil to spun yarns from staple fibers due to the its advantages such as possibility to be used in yarn/fabric form, porous structure, permeability, flexibility etc. In the study, QSG and thyme oil dispersions were prepared and applied to 100% acrylic fibres during ring spinning production via an alternative application method. Various properties of the produced yarns were analysed. SEM images indicated that fibre surface was covered with QSG and tyhme oil. Unlike QSG, the yarns loaded with thyme oil exhibited antibacterial activity property. The yarns produced were found to have tensile properties suitable for textile processing, although there was some reduction in strength and elongation at break. Based on the obtained results, it is believed that yarns containing natural materials may offer an alternative or complementary approach to treatment.
