Abstract
The production process of multifunctional viscose fabric is explained in this study, which involves the utilization of chitosan, Hinokitiol, and nano-zinc oxide. The prepared samples were examined using scanning electron microscopy, which revealed a remarkable dispersion of the materials applied onto the viscose fabric’s surface. After conducting tests on its ability to kill bacteria and its ability to withstand repeated washing cycles, we discovered that the product displays remarkable effectiveness in eliminating Bacillus cereus and Shigella bacteria. Moreover, the researchers examined the self-cleaning characteristics of the completed viscose textiles and found that the addition of nano-zinc oxide substantially enhanced their self-cleaning properties. According to percolation theory, it has been observed through the analysis of electrical conductivity that sample A and sample B do not exhibit any conductivity, whereas sample C demonstrates a conductivity of 10−7 Ω/square. Consequently, the multifunctional textiles manufactured possess outstanding physical and chemical characteristics.
