PROGNOSING DEVELOPMENT OF TEXTILE NANOTECHNOLOGIES

摘要

The article investigates current state and perspectives of developing sewing nanotechnologies in sewing cloths by analysing the peculiarities of textile nanotechnologies and the sphere of their application. Theoretical and information analysis of the patents of the database World Wide EPO according to the D01D and D06 classes has witnessed a considerable growth in the quantity of registered patented inventions both in the ways of chemical nanofibre production as well as applying nano-treatments for finishing textile fabrics. This fact gives us grounds to forecast a vivid growth of textile cloths production with the help of innovative nanotechnologies in the nearest 10-15 years. This growth will concern not only chemical fibre and thread production with the help of nanotechnologies, but it will also influence the methods of finishing in textile cloths by means of the latter ones.
