Textiles and Clothing Sustainability

Part of the book series: Textile Science and Clothing Technology ((TSCT))

Abstract

The chapter critically surveys the recent development trends in nanotextile finishes. Garments for special needs comprising of the functional aspects such as protective, medical treatment and care, have been considered through treatment with silver nanoparticles and have been related to sustainability. The micro- and nanoencapsulation of 100 % cotton denim fabric using three herbal extracts have been studied for antimicrobial efficiency, resulting in improvement in durability and good resistance to microbes over 30 industrial washes. The synthesis, characterization, and application of nanochitosan on cotton fabric has been studied, and the treated fabrics were evaluated for appearance, tensile, absorbency, stiffness, dyeing behaviour, wrinkle recovery, and antibacterial properties. Polyester fabric has been treated with nanosized dispersed dye particles without carrier, using ultrasound. This has been used for optimizing the parameters for the preparation of the printing paste. Attempt has been made to improve the handle property of jute polyester-blended yarn to produce union fabric with cotton yarn, intended for winter garment. The findings indicate that nano–micropolysiloxane-based finishing exhibit better improvement in the surface morphology, handling, and recovery property of the fabric as compared with other finishing combinations. Viscose fabrics have been modified to improve the attraction for metal oxides such as aluminium, zinc, or titanium in order to impart antimicrobial activity against two types of microorganisms. Nanosafe textile using the extracts of yellow papaya peel has been developed by extracellular synthesis of highly stable silver nanoparticles. Cotton fabrics with smart properties have been developed by functional finishing with stimuli-responsive nanogel using a combination of biopolymer and synthetic polymer in the synthesis of nanogel. The findings reveal that the application of nanogel as a smart finishing system affects the intrinsic cotton properties and also improves the common textile quality by providing new features of stimuli responsiveness. Above all these, the newer concepts of the nanotextile finishes discussed in the chapter promise enhancement in the existing properties of textile materials, increase durability, promote ecofriendliness and economy, and thus pave the way towards achieving better sustainability.
