Innovations resulting from technological advancements represent the best strategy for success in the increasingly competitive textile industry. Over the past few decades, coating technology has been transformed into an extensive field of materials research. Today’s textile industry demands additional requirements and functionalities from coatings, in addition to their basic protective and decorative values.Recent advances in polymer science and inorganic chemistry – especially at the nanoscale level – have further enhanced this growth. In this context, micro-encapsulation, a commercially successful technology which is used mainly in the paper and pharmaceutical industries, provides an additional input into the growing needs of functional coatings. Despite of the progress in the micro-encapsulation of textiles, there is still a need for a fast and reliable method that is capable of detecting the adsorption of microcapsules and their release during washing. This project focuses on the finishing of polyamide pantyhose and cotton knitted fabrics which includes implementation of microcapsules that release skin moisturising cream during wearing, as well as antimicrobial agents, respectively. Within the project, different concentrations of microcapsules would be added on the textile material (polyamide, cotton) in order to evaluate the release during washing. Surface characterization of polyamide/cotton fabrics before and after pre-treatment, dyed and finished (with microcapsules) bound to their fibres during treatment and maintenance would be monitored by streaming potential measurements. The microcapsules release would also be controlled using different methods such as: spectroscopy, microscopy and chromatography.
Short description of the task performed by Croatian partner
In the definition phase, Round Robin test (WP1), the contribution of TTF would be surface characterization when applying streaming potential measurements of polyamide and cotton textiles using the older instrument version, EKA. The following TTF activities in the WP¢s would be: characterisation of raw cotton fibres (Q/C), pre-treatment and multi-functional finishing processes of cotton knitted fabrics, optimizing of micro-encapsulation conditions, durability of special treatments, control of microcapsules release after the wearing and washing of cotton and polyamide textiles.
