Abstract
The present work represents wheelchair furnishing in order to develop the usual leather furnishing, as it can be printed and prepared to serve the Disabled children since it conserves water, and reduces in the long run energy, washing cost, and time too, and it also increases moisture resistance, in addition to Aesthetics. A pure polyester fabric was treated with Zinc Oxide nanoparticles as well as a mixture of silicone rubber and hexane, to obtain the desired self-cleaning, anti-bacterial and UV protection finishings, as well as the fabric’s water resistance. The finished samples were tested and the experimental results indicate that all the required measurements are included and discussed in detail.
