چکیده

The effect of milling process on TiO₂ nanopowders and functional properties of TiO₂ coated cotton fabric was investigated. The XRD analysis reveals that the milled TiO₂ nanopowders reduce its size in Nano scale when milling time increases. SEM analysis reveals that the milled TiO₂ powder shows a seed-like structure. FTIR spectra show the presence of the functional groups in milled TiO₂ nanopowders and TiO₂ coated cotton fabric. The hydrophobic test exhibits that the 100 and 125 hours of milled TiO₂ nanopowders coated cotton fabric has 70% water repellency.  The bursting strength (shearing stress) of TiO₂ coated cotton fabric also indicates an appreciable value of about 503.6 Kpa. TiO₂ nano finishing of cotton fabric can eliminate up to 99.99% of Staphylococcus aureus and Klebsiella pneumonia bacterial strains, which would be suitable for sports wears and surgical clothes.
