Nanotechnology Trends in Fashion and Textile

Srinivasan K, Rajanikumar K, Sheetal Bhardwaj K, Lalitha Kumari B and Murthy Chavali*. The ever-increasing demand for sophisticated fabrics with special features and exceptional comfort drives the need for the use of nanotechnology in this industry. It is a very important parameter for the textile industries to reconsider the technologies and chemicals used towards the rich group, so that they can satisfy environmental and consumer requirements. The most frequently or commonly used nanomaterials incorporated into textile materials are silver, gold, silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, aluminium hydroxides, nanoclay, carbon nanotubes, carbon black, graphene, copper, and iron hydroxides In this communication/opinion we like give our views on nanotechnology trends in fashion and textile engineering
