Abstract: In this work nano-particles were in-situ synthesized on cotton fabric by dipping the Air/ Dielectric barrier discharge plasma pretreated fabric in the corresponding metal salts solution followed by exposure to Ar/ plasma at atmospheric pressure. The size of the synthesized nano-particles was ranged from 7 to 30 nm with spherical shape. The immobilized nano-particles confer the fabric with multifunctional properties such as UV blocking and antimicrobial properties. Furthermore, the nano-particles could act as an alternative to the traditional organic dyes for dying cotton fabric with excellent color properties. Cotton fabric immobilized nano-particle was subsequently printed with three different reactive dyes to express the availability of their printing and obtaining different color shading. | ||
