Antimicrobial finishing of regular and modified nylon‐6 fabrics

Abstract: A simple, efficient, and practically applicable functional approach for improvement antimicrobial properties of nylon-6 fabrics and increase the washing durability of biofunctions was developed. This finishing approach is based on grafting of the fabrics with methacrylic acid (MAA) to create additional carboxylic groups in nylon-6 macromolecules, followed by subsequent reaction with dimethylalklbenzyl ammonium chloride (DMABAC) solution under alkaline conditions. The carboxylic groups react with cationic agent… Show more

“…The regeneration was effi- ciently continued until the effluent concentration reaches 0.1 mg/l for the exhausted columns of copper using ~5 bv of regenerant for textile fiber beds at 0.15 l/h volumetric flow rate. Regeneration process for textile fiber beds was in agreement with the report issued by US EPA (10), which concludes that, for the cation exchange process firstly being converted to hydrogen then to the sodium form.…”

“…The carboxylic groups react with cationic agent through ionic interaction, which led to the immobilization of QAS on nylon-6 fabrics. The results can be explained by the following equations [43]. aureus, but the fibers grafted with the methacryloyloxyethyl trimethylammonium chloride did not [44].…”

“…The interactions between carboxylic end groups and quaternary ammonium salts could provide improved durable antimicrobial functions over repeated washing tests [42]. A simple, efficient, and practically applicable functional approach for improvement antimicrobial properties of nylon-6 fabrics and increase the washing durability of biofunctions was developed by Shalby etal [43]. This finishing approach is based on grafting the fabrics with methacrylic acid (MAA) to create additional carboxylic groups in nylon-6 macromolecules, followed by subsequent reaction with dimethyl -alklbenzyl ammonium chloride (DMABAC) solution under alkaline conditions.…”
