Abstract Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) have gained significant attention in the textile
industry for their ability to enhance the physicochemical properties of fabrics. In recent years …

This chapter focuses on functional finishes for cotton-based textiles that are carried out
individually or in combination to enhance or create novel performance functionalities for …

The present research focuses on developing highly efficient, low-cost, and eco-friendly bio-
sorbents based on lingo-cellulosic materials in oak wood sawdust waste. Sawdust was …

Water repellent finishes are highly needed to achieve water repellent clothing, home and
technical textiles. In that regard, new CPS1000/TDI and CPS5000/TDI adducts were …

New silicone based adducts were synthesized by reacting equimolar ratio of carbinol
polydimethylsiloxane (CPDMS), 2, 4-toluene diisocyanate (TDI) and polyethylene glycol …

This paper reviews the recent research in the field of application of ultraviolet (UV) protection
finishes in textile functionalisation. The aim and the UV protecting mechanisms of UV …

In the present work, we propose a green and sustainable strategy for eco-friendly surface
modification of wool structure using biosynthesized kerationlytic proteases, from C4-ITA …

A green facile nano-finishing route was developed to impart high antibacterial efficacy, UV-
protection, self-cleaning and anti-wrinkle functions to cotton/wool and viscose/wool blends …

Microbial means of nanolignin production from the bulk lignin derived out of cotton stalks
could add value to the agricultural biomass, without affecting the environment. Also, such …

A simple impregnation method was employed to obtain functional cotton fabric based on a
zinc oxide (ZnO) and cellulose nanocomposite. The cellulose nanofibril suspension was …
