“…Recently, Gorjanc et al modified polyester cloth using corona treatment at the power 900 W, speed of 4 m · min −1 and 30 passages. The X‐ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS) analysis observed an increase in the O/C atomic ratio, confirming that oxygen is the main functional groups induced on the fibres surface . The influence of the number of passages was evaluated by Carneiro et al in a DBD prototype equipment onto unbleached and bleached cotton fabrics under an applied energy of 1.2 kW · min · m −2 .…”

“…Nowadays, due to the increasing growth competition textile materials cannot be restricted to clothes, linen, tablecloth and curtains, but they also have to be regarded also as high‐tech products that, in addition to the traditional clothing industry, find application in many technological fields, like construction, agriculture, automotive, aerospace and medicine. In this context, plasma technology has assumed a great importance among all available textile surface modifications processes . It is a dry, environmentally‐ and worker‐friendly method to achieve surface alteration without modifying the bulk properties of different materials .…”

Plasma technology applied to textiles is a dry, environmentally‐ and worker‐friendly method to achieve surface alteration without modifying the bulk properties of different materials. In particular, atmospheric non‐thermal plasmas are suited because most textile materials are heat sensitive polymers and applicable in a continuous processes. In the last years plasma technology has become a very active, high growth research field, assuming a great importance among all available material surface modifications in textile industry. The main objective of this review is to provide a critical update on the current state of art relating plasma technologies applied to textile industry.

“…They could be replaced with physical methods such as low temperature plasma (LTP), which is an environmental friendly process that can modify only the surface of wool fibers [7,8]. Plasma is the fourth state of matter and a step towards creating solid surfaces with a new and improved properties that cannot be achieved by conventional processes [9]. Plasma treatment is a modification technique that is confined to the surface of fibers and their bulk properties are not affected [10].…”

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of oxygen plasma treatment on the surface roughness, morphology, chemical surface structure, crystallinity and tensile properties of wool fiber yarn. The wool fibers were treated with oxygen plasma at a different treatment time. The morphological surface characterization of wool fibers was realized at sub-micro scale by means of high-resolution scandisk confocal microscopy and scanning electron microscopy. The chemical structure of untreated and plasma treated wool fiber surface was analyzed by Attenuated Total Reflectance Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometry. In addition, the percentage of crystallinity and the size of the crystals were investigated using an X-ray diffractometer. The results showed that oxygen plasma treatment leads to the removal of surface lipids and oxidizes the cysteine in the exocuticle and increases the surface roughness.

“…Additionally, wet methods are substrate specific, not environmental friendly, expensive, and have to be adapted to treat textiles [6]. In recent years plasma technology has assumed a great importance to improve the fibre-matrix adhesion by introducing polar groups, by deposition of a new layer of the same polymer or by changing the surface roughness of the substrate [7]. It is a dry, environmentally-and worker-friendly method to achieve surface alteration without modifies the bulk properties of different materials [8].…”

Abstract. Dielectric Barrier Discharge (DBD) atmospheric-pressure plasma was employed to enhance the deposition of commercial microcapsules (MCs) containing Aloe vera extract onto a cotton/polyester (50:50) fabric. DBD conditions were optimized in term of energy dosage and contact angle. The MCs were applied by padding and printing methods and the coatings were characterized in terms of SEM and FTIR. MCs display a spherical shape with size between 2 and 8 µm with an average wall thickness of 0.5 µm. The MCs applied by printing and pretreated with a plasma dosage of 1.6 kW m 2 min -1 showed the best results with an increased adhesion of 200% and significant penetration of MCs into the fibres network. Plasma printed fabric retained 230% more MCs than untreated fabric after 10 washing cycles. However, the coating resistance between unwashed and washed samples was only improved by 5%. Considering the fact that no binder or crosslinking agents were used, the DBD plasma-assisted deposition of MCs revealed to be a promising environmental safe and low cost coating technology.
