“…In the untreated cotton fabric, spectrum (a), a band appears in the range of 3200-3500 cm −1 , which is attributed to O-H stretching. The presence of C-H, O-H, C-O, and C-O-C vibrations caused the characteristic bands in the range of 1500-800 cm −1 [38]. On the other hand, the absorption band at 3310 cm −1 , which corresponded to the stretching vibration of phenolic O-H, was indicated in spectrum (e) for pure curcumin.…”

Medical textiles are one of the most rapidly growing parts of the technical textiles sector in the textile industry. This work aims to investigate the medical applications of a curcumin/TiO2 nanocomposite fabricated on the surface of cotton fabric. The cotton fabric was pretreated with three crosslinking agents, namely citric acid, 3-Chloro-2-hydroxypropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride (Quat 188) and 3-glycidyloxypropyltrimethoxysilane (GPTMS), by applying the nanocomposite to the modified cotton fabric using the pad-dry-cure method. The chemistry and morphology of the modified fabrics were examined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. In addition, the chemical mechanism for the nanocomposite-modified fabric was reported. UV protection (UPF) and antibacterial properties against Gram-positive S. aureus and Gram-negative E. coli bacterial strains were investigated. The durability of the fabrics to 20 washing cycles was also examined. Results demonstrated that the nanocomposite-modified cotton fabric exhibited superior antibacterial activity against Gram-negative bacteria than Gram-positive bacteria and excellent UV protection properties. Moreover, a good durability was obtained, which was possibly due to the effect of the crosslinker used. Among the three pre-modifications of the cotton fabric, Quat 188 modified fabric revealed the highest antibacterial activity compared with citric acid or GPTMS modified fabrics. This outcome suggested that the curcumin/TiO2 nanocomposite Quat 188-modified cotton fabric could be used as a biomedical textile due to its antibacterial properties.

Medical textiles are one of the most rapidly growing parts of the technical textiles sector of the textile industry. This work was developed for biocompatible materials of curcumin / TiO2 nanocomposite fabricated on the surface of cotton fabric for medical applications. Cotton fabric was pretreated with three crosslinking agents namely, citric acid, Quat-188, and GPTMS. Applying nanocomposite on modified cotton fabric using pad-dry cure method. The chemistry and morphology of modified fabrics are examined by Fourier-transformed infrared spectroscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy. In addition, the chemical mechanism for nanocomposite modified fabric was reported. UV protection (UPF) and antibacterial properties against Gram - positive S. aureus and Gram - negative E. coli bacterial strains were investigated.

This outcome suggested that curcumin / TiO2 nanocomposite Quatt-188 modified cotton fabric could be used in biomedical textile as antibacterial properties.

“…46 A similar ''pad-dry-cure'' method was employed for the chemical modification of two cellulose-based fabrics, linen and cotton. 47 Depending on the sequence of treatment, two different nanocomposites are produced: Ag/GO coating on the fabric and in situ prepared Ag NPs on GO coated fabric to produce the RGO/Ag nanocomposite (Fig. 8).…”
