The effect of changing structural factors and treating with silver nanoparticles on the functional and microbiological properties of cotton sportswear

الملخص EN

Recently, The world is looking for protective clothing from microbes in various areas of life.

Therefore, the textile industry has witnessed the introduction of new functional properties for fabrics such as microbial resistance using various techniques such as nanotechnology.

The research goal to produce sportswear used in martial arts with new functional characteristics such as the ability to orb water, Air permeability, Tensile strength, elongation, and Antimicrobial.

The player's suit for this sport is exposed to the strong tension of the hostile player as well as the growth of bacteria due to the direct contact between the players and the presence of an appropriate medium for the growths bacterial.

The fabrics were produced by changing several factors such as changing the proportion of materials used (Ag NPs), textile constructions and square meter weight, we will get different types of sportswear.

Some tests such as antibacterial activity, Air permeability, tensile strength, and elongation are done.

The results showed that by increasing the weight of the square meter and number of intersection in measurement unit and concentration of Ag NPs, the functional properties of the fabrics produced have become appropriate for the purpose of the research.
