Title: Nano-particles & their uses in textiles: Part 3
Post by: Debangshu Paul on July 14, 2014, 10:05:31 PM

Some other type of clothing niche being explored on many fronts, with perhaps more staying power than scratch-and-sniff shirts, involves the nanoscale improvement of fabrics and fibres. Nanotechnology is adding its labels to popular clothing brands with various products: Resists Spills, Resists Static, Coolest Comfort, and Repels and Releases Stains. Researchers all around the world are looking at all sorts of metal additives and polymer additives, inorganic, organic materials to take them at nanoscale to impart lots of interesting properties to textiles.

Preparation of nano-sized materials

There are several physico-chemical methods for preparation of nano-sized material mentioned as below :

• Vapour phase reaction.
  
  Chemical vapour deposition.
  
  Inert gas condensation.
  
  Laser ablation.
  
  Plasma spraying.
  
  Spray conversion.
  
  Sputtering.
