| Abstract | ||||
| A general review on natural and synthetic fabrics treatments with low-temperature plasma using various gases in presence of different types of nanoparticles is given. The effect of using plasma/nanoparticles on the surface morphology, physical and mechanical properties of the treated fabrics is declared. Using combined plasma and nanoparticles treatments show a noticeable effect and great enhancement on many properties of all textile fibers. Improvement of functional properties of textile materials is considered crucial to the textile industry. Dyeing and printing improvement could be achieved and it was found to depend on the types of plasma and nanoparticles used. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the surface characteristics of all fabrics were changed while the bulk properties were mainly maintained unchanged. Textile industries see a promising future for plasma/ nanoparticles technology, with the environmental and energy conservation benefits, in developing high-performance materials for the world market. | ||||
