. Laundering Cotton Fabric

Textile Research Journal, 1970
A cotton fabric was artificially soiled and laundered with two different types of detergents at two different wash tem peratures. Samples laundered at 140°F were rated by subjective evaluations to be whiter, softer, and smoother than fabric laundered in unheated water. The type of detergent did not affect the softness or smoothness of the fabric.

Fabrication of superoleophobic cotton fabric for multi-purpose applications

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2019
Superoleophobicity is of interest for practical applications such as liquid repellency, self-cleaning, stain resistance, anti-bacterial properties and oil–water separation. In this work, the superoleophobic coating on cotton fabric was applied by simple immersion in TiO 2 nanoparticles, perfluorodecyltriethoxysilane

Functional finishes of stretch cotton fabrics

Carbohydrate Polymers, 2013
Functionalized cotton cellulose/spandex woven fabrics with different structures namely plain (1/1), twill (2/2) and satin were produced. Factors affecting the imparted functional properties such as weave structure and constituents of the finishing formulations including ether or ester cross-linker and catalyst type, silicone-micro-emulsion, water/oil ...

Microencapsulation of tamoxifen: Application to cotton fabric

Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2009
Tamoxifen microcapsules and drug loaded medicated fabrics were investigated. The microcapsules were prepared using a complex coacervation procedure involving gelatin B and acacia gum. The morphology, particle size, drug loading capacity and in vitro release characteristics of the drug microcapsules were optimized for coating tamoxifen microcapsules ...

Cotton Fabrics with Single-Faced Superhydrophobicity

Langmuir, 2012
This article reports on the fabrication of cotton fabrics with single-faced superhydrophobicity using a simple foam finishing process. Unlike most commonly reported superhydrophobic fabrics, the fabrics developed in this study exhibit asymmetric wettability on their two faces: one face showing superhydrophobic behavior (highly nonwetting or water ...

Fabrication of superhydrophobicity on cotton fabric by sol–gel

Applied Surface Science, 2012
Abstract A superhydrophobic cotton fabric was prepared by dip-coating TiO2 for four times and subsequent surface modification with n-octadecylthiol (ODT). The surface morphology, crystal structure and chemical composition are studied by SEM, XRD, and XPS, respectively.

Cotton

2013
Today's world textile and garment trade is valued at a staggering $425 billion. We are told that under the pressure of increasing globalisation, it is India and China that are the new world manufacturing powerhouses. However, this is not a new phenomenon: until the industrial revolution, Asia manufactured great quantities of colourful printed cottons ...
