Abstract

This paper is focused on introducing a nano-modified polyester fabric with copper ferrite nanoparticles as a composite of metal oxides and compares it with treated polyester fabrics with oxide of copper and iron nanoparticles. The nanoparticles of metal oxide were created on the fabric surface with the in-situ synthesis of copper acetate and ferrous sulfate salts in alkaline conditions. The analytical techniques (XRD, FTIR, XPS, SEM, and EDX), the rate of dye solution discoloring, the reduction colonies, cell viability, released ions into the water, and also, the response to the magnetic field and the color coordinates of treated fabrics were investigated. The copper ferrite nanoparticle was synthesized on the polyester fabric with an irregular shape and crystal size of 17 nm. The copper ferrite treated sample with dye degradation of 80.77%, colonies reduction of 100%, and saturation magnetic of 9.81 emu/g displayed better results regarding photocatalytic, antibacterial, and magnetic activity than other samples. Also, the copper ferrite treated sample with the highest cell viability and the least release of ions into the water has the least risk to the environment and human life. The polyester fabric containing copper ferrite nanoparticles had more desirable properties and fewer disadvantages.
