Application of Two Reactive Water-soluble Antibacterials on Polyester/Cotton Blend Fabrics

摘要

Two reactive antibacterials were applied to finish for polyester/cotton (T/C) blend fabrics (20/80) and (35/65) and the optimal finishing process was obtained by orthogonal experiments. The finished fabrics were undergone the evaluation of antibacterial performance. For both of the two antibacterials and two T/C fabrics, the lowest inhibition rates for Staphyloccocus aureus are 85.97% and 79.19% after 50 washing cycles. The results indicates that the treated fabric has good antibacterial performance and washing durability.
