“…Textiles with improved functionalities can find a variety of applications, such as controlled release of drugs [1,2,3], cosmeotextiles [1,4,5], temperature control [6,7], and anti-microorganism action [8,9,10]. The use of antimicrobial agents in textile items is focused on the control of infections coming from the contact between the textile and human skin [11,12]. Currently, the treatments to setup the antibacterial fibers using metallic salts aim at the incorporation of silver [13], copper [6,14], and zinc [15,16] nanoparticles.…”

The use of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOF) such as HKUST-1 in textiles is an alternative with regard to the development of technologies that are increasingly seeking for functionalities, mainly in the fields of health and hygiene, named biofunctional fabrics. However, the application of the MOF under the surface of the wool fiber can lead to a low durability finish due to its low fixation. Thus, this project aims to perform the direct synthesis of HKUST in the wool fiber, so that a product with good washing durability can be obtained. The purpose of this study was to incorporate metal-organic frameworks, composed of copper and trimesic acid, into woolen fabrics, to improve the antibacterial properties. The synthesis was performed directly in the wool fabric, at time intervals of 24 and 48 h. The resulting fabrics were characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (EDS), X-Ray Diffractometry (XRD), Fourier Transform Spectroscopy Infrared-Attenuated Total Reflectance (FTIR-ATR), and colorimetric analysis (CIElab), and the Antimicrobial Activity Test (American Association of Textile Chemist and Colourists - AATCC Test Method 61-2007-2A) was performed. The results suggested that the application produced textiles with antibacterial properties, showing activity against Escherichia coli.

“…Generally, if the coefficient of determination of a model is greater than 0.6, it can be considered as a valid one. 29 As Table 3 shows, the multiple correlation coefficient R 2 ¼ 0.8667, which indicates that the obtained model has good predictability. As shown in Table 3, the obtained regression model (equation ( 2)) was significant with a P value of 0.0221 less than 0.05, implying that the linear relationship between the fabric surface temperature and independent variables is significant.…”

As a functional textile, photothermal textile materials are receiving more and more attention. A composite yarn was prepared by coating polyvinyl butyral/zirconium carbide/alumina oxide on the surface of polyester yarn through a sizing coating method with the aim to provide a textile substrate with controlled photothermal efficiency. The Box–Behnken design combined with response surface analysis and regression method was used to study the effects of input variables (polyvinyl butyral, zirconium carbide and alumina oxide concentration) on the temperature of the fabric made of polyester/polyvinyl butyral/zirconium carbide/alumina oxide composite yarn under infrared light irradiation. It was found that the effect of polyvinyl butyral and zirconium carbide content on the fabric surface temperature was more significant than that of alumina oxide content. The established regression model could predict the response value (fabric temperature) precisely. The optimal conditions for preparing the polyester/polyvinyl butyral/zirconium carbide/alumina oxide composite yarn were obtained by response surface analysis: 5.9% polyvinyl butyral, 5% zirconium carbide and 0.5% alumina oxide. The structure and properties of the yarn prepared under the optimal conditions were characterized. The results showed zirconium carbide and alumina oxide deposited on surface coating without obvious deterioration of thermal stability and tensile strength. The near-infrared light absorption rate of the composite yarn reached 96.71% and its surface temperature reached 104.0°C after 180 s irradiation under an infrared lamp. The photothermal temperature can still reach 101.5°C after 20 cyclings. The excellent photothermal conversion capacity indicates the polyester/polyvinyl butyral/zirconium carbide/alumina oxide yarn can realize solar energy utilization and be applied in heat management textiles.

“…These methods were mostly qualitative or semi-quantitative when evaluating the degree of cross-linking between finishing agents and cotton fibers, [10][11][12][13] which resulted in low accuracy and efficiency. In addition, storage stability evaluation was performed by measuring changes in mechanical properties such as strength and wrinkle recovery angle (WRA) of the sensitized fabrics before and after storage; 14,15 the changes in of properties such as WRA and the strength of the fabric before and after storage were measured after storage for 2-3 months.…”

In delayed-curing and non-iron finishing, the sensitized fabric after low-temperature drying should have good surface planeness before curing at high temperatures, which implies that the finishing agent has not reacted with the cellulose fibers during storage; therefore, a suitable non-iron finishing agent is essential for achieving the above objectives. Meanwhile, there are currently no mature and efficient evaluation methods for the storage stability of sensitized fabrics. In this article, the content of characteristic groups of the sensitized fabrics with different storage conditions was measured. The storage time can be shortened from 30 to 6 days with high-temperature storage (40–60°C). The reaction kinetics equation was established under high-temperature storage; then using this equation to predict the cross-linking degree of sensitized fabrics during long-term storage at low temperature, the storage stability of sensitized fabrics can also be evaluated. The relative error of 2.5% between the predicted value and the measured value of the reaction degree showed the accuracy and effectiveness of the established method. This article provided a basis for the stability evaluation of the sensitized fabric and the selection of the finishing agent, finishing process, and storage conditions for the delayed-curing and non-ironing finishing process.
