Abstract | ||||
This research specifically investigated the enhancement of various textiles through sublimation printing techniques by utilizing pectin, an eco-friendly polymer, in conjunction with zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles. This research explores methods to enhance the coloring procedure of both natural and synthetic fabrics using pectin-based formulations on cotton, polyester, and blended textiles. The treated fabrics were assessed for their self-cleaning, UV protection, and antimicrobial characteristics. The findings showed significant improvements in color durability, UV protection, and antimicrobial qualities, displaying the potential for pectin and ZnO nanoparticles to enhance fabric performance sustainably. This study aims to provide a promising approach to developing advanced textiles with various capabilities by utilizing environmentally friendly resources. | ||||
