Abstract

As the consumers are now increasingly aware of the hygienic life style, and there is a necessity and expectation for a wide range of textile products finished with antimicrobial characteristics, the authors aim to investigate antimicrobial finishing of polyester fabrics using titanium dioxide nanoparticles. All the required measurements are applied and investigated in the paper.
