Abstract
Synthesis of Zinc Coneflower-Porous Starch composite for textile finishing was successfully synthesized. The Functional finish was developed to enhance the quality and durability of the textile fabrics against launderable issues, bacterial effects and tensile problems occurred in day to day usage of the textiles. Zinc oxide was prepared from ginger-mediated biogenic synthesis, extracted native starch was ball- milled for nanoporous starch micro particle synthesis. Composite was prepared from ZnO and starch for finishing on the fabric. UV–Vis spectroscopy shows the peak at 380 nm for zinc oxide, XRD patterns show the prominent peaks at 15°, 17°, 18°, 23° for starch and 32°, 34°, 36° for ZnO indicated the presence of the materials. SEM shows the prepared composite with the morphology of ZnO coneflowers like structures and nanoporous starch microparticles and elemental composition of the materials confirmed by EDAX. The Developed finish on the fabric was investigated by SEM analysis, antibacterial studies, tear-strength test and fabric fastness to laundering test. Textile finish was developed from the composite prepared by the green synthesis of Zinc Coneflower and ball-milling method for the Porous starch. Developed finish was characterized by various methods.
