Abstract

Bu çalışmanın amacı gümüş katkılı selülozik lif/pamuk karışımından üretilen kumaşların antibakteriyel aktivitelerini ve yıkama dayanımlarını analiz etmek, kumaşlarda bulunan gümüş miktarını belirlemek ve antibakteriyel aktivite ile gümüş içeriği arasındaki ilişkiyi araştırmaktır. Bu amaçlar doğrultusunda deniz yosunu ve gümüş iyonu içeren SeaCell® Active lifleri ile pamuk lifleri, beş farklı oranda karıştırılarak örme kumaşlar üretilmiştir. Tüm kumaş numuneleri ağartılmış ve 60 defa yıkanmıştır. Antibakteriyel aktivite AATCC 100-1999 test metoduna göre her on yıkama sonrasında test edilmiştir. Kumaşların gümüş içeriği Atomik absorpsiyon spektrofotometresi (AAS) ile belirlenmiştir. Lif ve kumaş yüzeyleri Taramalı Elektron Mikroskobu (SEM) ve X Işını Fotoelektron Spektroskopisi (XPS) ile incelenmiştir. Antibakteriyel testler %3 SeaCell ® Active lifi içeren kumaşlarda dahi çok sayıda yıkama sonrasında antibakteriyel etkinin elde edilebildiğini göstermiştir. Gümüş içeriği ile bakteri sayısındaki azalma arasında önemli korelasyon bulunmuştur. ster kumaşların aksine, selülozik/poliester karışımı kumaşların etkili bir şekilde sıvı absorbsiyonu ve iletimini sağladığı bulunmuştur

EVALUATION OF SILVER CONTENT AND ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITIES OF SILVER LOADED FIBER/COTTON BLENDED TEXTILE FABRICS

Abstract

The aims of this work were to analyze the antibacterial activity and laundering durability of the silver loaded cellulosic fiber/cotton blended antibacterial textile fabrics, to quantify the silver content present in fabrics, and to examine the relationship between the antibacterial activity and silver content. For this aims knitting fabrics consisting of SeaCell® Active, which is the cellulosic fiber incorporated with seaweed and silver ions, and cotton fibers blended with five different ratios were produced. All fabric samples bleached and washed 60 times. The antibacterial efficiency was evaluated according to AATCC 100-1999 method after each ten laundry cycles. Silver content of the fabrics were determined by atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS). Fiber and fabric surfaces were investigated using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and by X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) views. Antibacterial tests showed that good antibacterial activity can be achieved after several washings even with 3% of SeaCell ® Active fibers in blended fabrics. Significant correlation was found between silver content and bacterial reduction
