“…Graphene/graphene derivatives coated cotton fabrics also shows high extent of antibacterial activity 82c,122a,c,156a. Fabrication of single layer GO modified cotton fabric having antibacterial activity has been shown by Zhao et al GO was coated onto cotton through adsorption (cotton–GO), radiation‐induced crosslinking (cotton–rx‐GO), and chemical crosslinking (cotton–cx‐GO) and all type of composites showed remarkable antibacterial activity ( Figure ) 82c.…”

“…Based on fiber chemistry many modification approach has got attentions for better interaction and bonding between fiber and GO, such as use of adhesives,133a,115 coupling agents, plasma treatment, chemical activation, grafting via esterification,110b,116,119 microwave‐assist polymerization (MAP), thiol–ene click chemistry, doping of GO with different metal ions for chemical crosslinking, etc. Moreover, antimicrobial nanoparticles like silver, ammonium salts and TiO 2 has also been used with graphene 115b,122. Fifth step is reduction of GO coated fabrics.…”

Personal protective clothing is intended to protect the wearer from various hazards (mechanical, biological, chemical, thermal, radiological, etc.) and inhospitable environmental conditions that may cause harm or even death. There are various types of personal protective clothing, manufactured with different materials based on hazards and end user requirements. Conventional protective clothing has impediments such as high weight, bulky nature, lack of mobility, heat stress, low heat dissipation, high physical stress, diminishing dexterity, diminishing scope of vision, lack of breathability, and reduced protection against pathogens and hazards. By virtue of the superlative properties of graphene, fabrics modified with this material can be an effective means to overcome these limitations and to improve properties such as mechanical strength, antibacterial activity, flame resistance, conductivity, and UV resistance. The limitations of conventional personal protective equipment are discussed, followed by necessary measures which might be taken to improve personal protective equipment (PPE), the unique properties of graphene, methods of graphene incorporation in fabrics, and the current research status and potential of graphene‐modified performance textiles relevant to PPE.
