Abstract
TiO2 nanoparticles were prepared at low temperature using TiCl3. Rutile phase TiO2 agglomerated nanoparticles showed a rod-like morphology. Diameter of TiO2 nanorods was controlled by varying acidic catalyst and calcination temperature. At 1073 and 1273 K, nanorod was deformed to elliptical like morphology with unagglomerated particles. TiO2 nanoparticles were padded on surface of cotton fabric using silica sol and characterized comprehensively. The effect of ultraviolet protection on TiO2 nanorods coated cotton fabric was determined. High ultraviolet protection factor indicates that the TiO2 nanoparticles coated on cotton fabrics show good ultraviolet protection efficiency.
