In this study, fabrication of dual responsive smart polymer and cotton fabrics with thermo-responsive and pH responsive properties was aimed. For this aim, poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-methacrylamide) P(NIPAM-co-MAM) copolymers containing different ratio of NIPAM/MAM monomers were synthesized. Analysis results showed that the copolymers were synthesized successfully by free radical addition polymerization method and their LCST values ranges from 33°C to 41°C. A selected sample of the synthesized copolymers was applied to fabric via double-bath impregnation method and thermo-responsive wetting property of the fabric was examined via wetting time and water uptake tests, contact angle measurement. The test results indicated that hydrophilic character of the fabric changed to the hydrophobic character reversibly depending on change in temperature. The fabric could manage water vapor permeability via changing pore size as well as their hydrophilic character depending on temperature. Besides, it was concluded that the fabrics had strong antibacterial activity against S.aureus bacteria.

P(NIPAM–co-MAM) Kopolimer Bitim İşlemi ile Sıcaklığa ve pH'a Duyarlı Akıllı Pamuklu Kumaşların Geliştirilmesi

Öz

Bu çalışmada, ısıya-duyarlı ve pH’a duyarlı özelliklere sahip çift uyarıya duyarlı akıllı polimer ve pamuklu kumaşların üretilmesi amaçlanmıştır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda farklı oranlarda NIPAM/MAM monomerleri içeren poli(N-izopropilakrilamid-ko-metakrilamid) P(NIPAM-ko-MAM) kopolimerleri sentezlendi. Analiz sonuçları, kopolimerlerin serbest radikal katılma polimerizasyon yöntemi ile başarılı bir şekilde sentezlendiğini ve LCST değerlerinin 33°C ile 41°C arasında değiştiğini göstermiştir. Sentezlenen kopolimerler arasından seçilen numune çift banyolu emdirme yöntemi ile kumaşa uygulanmış ve kumaşın ısıya duyarlı ıslanma özelliği, ıslanma süresi testi, su alma testi ve temas açısı ölçümü ile incelenmiştir. Test sonuçları, kumaşın hidrofilik karakterinin, sıcaklıktaki değişime bağlı olarak tersinir bir şekilde hidrofobik karaktere dönüştüğünü göstermiştir. Kumaş, sıcaklığa bağlı olarak hidrofilik karakterinin yanı sıra gözenek boyutunu değiştirerek su buharı geçirgenliğini yönetebilmektedir. Ayrıca kumaşların S.aureus bakterilerine karşı güçlü antibakteriyel aktiviteye sahip olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır.
