Abstract | ||||
Abstract Nowadays, the demand for sports products with high performance in increased significantly. Nanotechnology has opened new ways to develop, and to add desirable functions to sportswear. Nanocellulose has emerged as a sustainable and promising nanomaterial owing to its unique structures and superb properties. In this study, we prepared nanocellulose from cotton wastes using acid hydrolysis followed by mechanical pulverization and , 37 kHz high power ultrasonic for 300 min. Polyester fabric samples were padded with varying concentrations of nanocellulose suspension (0.1g/l – 0.3g/l and 0.5g/l) with 5g /l surfactant. Samples were dried at 80° and then cured using either oven at 180°C or microwave for 3 min and 60 s. Some mechanical (burst & pilling resistance), anti-bacterial, and fastness tests were done. The best results were achieved with an increase in the concentration of nanocellulose in the aqueous media. The treatments of produced nanocellulose on Polyester fabric improve its antimicrobial and positively influence the mechanical, with good UPF and fastness properties. These results support potential future industrial application of nanocelluloe/polyester fabric as ductile, lightweight and cost-effective substitute for sportswear application. | ||||
