Abstract

ABSTRACTThe aim of this study was to study the influence of metal salt treatment on UV protection property of cotton fabrics. CuCl2, SbCl3, TiO2, Co3O4, SnO2, Ni(NO3)2和AgNO3 were used as metallic salts. Mentioned metallic salts were treated on cotton fabric, and the Ultraviolet Protection Factors (UPF) was examined. The morphology of fibers loaded with different metal salts was assessed by SEM. The treated cotton fabrics were then characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the crystallinity and crystals size for all samples were studied. Metal salt loaded fabrics showed better UV protection properties compared to untreated cotton fabrics. The results confirmed that metal salts have potential applications for producing ultra violet protective cotton fabric.
