Research of protective and operational properties of sorption-filtering textile material

Abstract

The article presents the results of a study on the functionalisation of synthetic textile materials with spherical activated carbon using an adhesive to create personal protective equipment based on Russian components. These materials are of particular relevance in the production of sorption and filtering personal protective equipment, which must have, along with high protective characteristics, high performance properties, vapour and air permeability. In the course of the work, the influence of the plasma of a capacitive high-frequency and low-pressure discharge on the modification of the base material was investigated. It has been proven that plasma treatment of polyester nonwoven material accelerates sorption processes, ensures uni-form coverage of fibres with a binder, which allows maintaining the material's air permeability. The results of studies of the material for the time of protective action on ammonia demonstrated the prospects for the development of Russian sorption-filtering textile material on a non-woven polyester base with a monolayer of granular activated carbon fixed on a polymer binder.
