Abstract EN
The antibacterial efficiency of nanofibre composite yarns with an immobilized antibacterial agent was tested.
This novel type of nanofibrous composite material combines the good mechanical properties of the core yarn with the high specific surface of the nanofibre shell to gain specific targeted qualities.
The main advantages of nanofibre covered composite yarns over the standard planar nanofibre membranes include high tensile strength, a high production rate, and their ability to be processed by standard textile techniques.
The presented paper describes a study of the immobilization of an antibacterial agent and its interaction with two types of bacterial colonies.
The aim of the study is to assess the applicability of the new composite nanomaterial in antibacterial filtration.
During the experimental tests copper(II) oxide particles were immobilized in the polyurethane and polyvinyl butyral nanofibre components of a composite yarn.
The antibacterial efficiency was evaluated by using both Gram-negative Escherichia coli and Gram-positive Staphylococcus gallinarum bacteria.
The results showed that the composite yarn with polyvinyl butyral nanofibres incorporating copper(II) oxide nanoparticles exhibited better antibacterial efficiency compared to the yarn containing the polyurethane nanofibres.
The nanofibre/nanoparticle covered composite yarns displayed good antibacterial activity against a number of bacteria.
