TL;DR: In this article, a low temperature and cost-effective process for antimicrobial finishing of cotton textiles has been developed by sol-gel method by treating cotton textile with silica sols from water glass and then with silver nitrate solution.
Abstract: A low temperature and cost-effective process for antimicrobial finishing of cotton textiles has been developed by sol–gel method. The antimicrobial treatment was performed by treating cotton textile with silica sols from water glass and then with silver nitrate solution. The antimicrobial activity was determined by using E. coli as a model for Gram-negative bacteria. The results showed that the treated textile has an excellent antimicrobial effect and laundering durability. SEM analysis showed coarse surface morphological change on the water glass treated cotton textile. The residual concentration of silver ion on fabrics was informed by ICP-MS. XPS results indicated that two different states of silver were present on the surface of the antimicrobial textile.

TL;DR: Experimental results indicated that all the degradation processes could effectively follow a first-order kinetic model, and revealed that more attention should be paid to the transformation products because they could be more toxic than the parent compounds.

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of surface charge on electrospinning by adding LiCl was investigated and it was shown that the relationship between radius r of jet and the axial distance z from nozzle follows an allometric law in the form r ∼ z − 0.5 in case of full surface charge, and the scaling exponent becomes larger for partly charged fibers.

TL;DR: The synergistic toughening effects from building blocks of one-dimensional NFC and two-dimensional GO, interface interactions of hydrogen and covalent bonding together result in the integrated mechanical properties including high tensile strength, toughness, and fatigue life as well as high electrical conductivity.
Abstract: Inspired by the nacre, we demonstrated the integrated ternary artificial nacre nanocomposites through synergistic toughening of graphene oxide (GO) and nanofibrillar cellulose (NFC). In addition, the covalent bonding was introduced between adjacent GO nanosheets. The synergistic toughening effects from building blocks of one-dimensional NFC and two-dimensional GO, interface interactions of hydrogen and covalent bonding together result in the integrated mechanical properties including high tensile strength, toughness, and fatigue life as well as high electrical conductivity. These extraordinary properties of the ternary synthetic nacre nanocomposites allow the support for advances in diverse strategic fields including stretchable electronics, transportation, and energy. Such bioinspired strategy also provides a new insight in designing novel multifunctional nanocomposites.

TL;DR: In this article, both air/He and air/O 2/He atmospheric plasma treatments are applied to desize PVA on cotton, then PDR (percent desizing ratio) and tensile strengths of cotton fabrics and single yams are measured.
Abstract: Both air/He and air/O 2/He atmospheric plasma treatments are applied to desize PVA on cotton, then PDR (percent desizing ratio) and tensile strengths of cotton fabrics and single yams are measured. XPS and SEM are used to analyze the effects of atmospheric pressure plasma treatments on PVA. These treatments can both remove some PVA sizing and significantly improve PDR by washing, especially by cold water washing. The tensile strengths of cotton fabrics treated with atmospheric pressure plasma are the same as for the unsized fabric. XPS analysis of the plasma treated PVA films reveals surface chemical changes such as chain scission and formation of polar groups, which promote the solubility of PVA in cold water. Air/O2/He plasma is more effective than air/He plasma on PVA desizing.
