Novel feature of nano‐titanium dioxide on textiles: Antifelting and antibacterial wool
TL;DR: In this article, the antifelting and antibacterial features of wool samples treated with nanoparticles of titanium dioxide (TiO2) were evaluated, and the results showed that the amount of TiO2 nanoparticles on the surface of the wool increased with increasing concentration in the impregnated bath, and subsequently, lower shrinkage and higher antibacterial properties were obtained.
