Abstract | ||||
Textile businesses have begun to adopt synthetic material alternatives in the interest of sustainability and eco-friendly manufacturing. They are either researching new natural materials, recycling industrial or agricultural waste, or, in some cases, reducing the use of synthetics and chemicals. Casein fibres are milk-derived regenerated protein fibres. Recently, environmentally friendly techniques of manufacturing casein fibres have been discovered. Casein fibre offers a number of qualities that make it particularly valuable in textile technology due to its superior moisture absorption, smooth texture and resistance to UV radiation. Furthermore, casein fibre has antibacterial properties. This opens up a slew of new options for the medical business. Casein fibre utilisation is expected to increase in the near future due to its minimal environmental impact. | ||||
