Effect of Eco-Friendly Antimicrobial Finish on Textiles for Controlling

The study was aimed to apply eco-friendly antimicrobial finish on textiles. The eco-friendly antimicrobial finish was extracted from leaves of Azadirachata indica, Butea monosperma and Litchi chinensis plants and applied on 100% cotton, 100% polyester, 50/50 cotton/polyester and 100% silk. Before and after applying antimicrobial finish presence of microorganisms, FTIR, SEM, fabric properties and sustainability to washes were checked. The antimicrobial finish was applied by pad dry cure method and finish was fixed by using poly urethane binder. The presence of microorganisms was checked by ASTEM E2149 shake flask method before and after applying antimicrobial finish and after successive 25 washes. The results were analyzed through MANOVA and ANOVA. The fabric properties were checked by using AATCC and ISO standard test methods. The eco-friendly antimicrobial finish made 89% reduction in microbial growth. In case of aesthetic properties (smoothness, surface appearance) antimicrobial finish had positive effect on 100% cotton, 50/50 cotton/polyester and on 100% silk but had no effect on 100% polyester. In case of comfort related properties (Absorbency, Air Permeability) antimicrobial finish had positive effect on cotton, cotton/polyester and silk but had no effect on polyester fabric. In case of mechanical properties (Tensile strength, Tear strength) antimicrobial finish had positive on cotton, cotton/polyester and silk fabric while it had no effect on polyester fabric. The antimicrobial finish lasted up to 25 washes. The study suggested that antimicrobial fabric is suitable to provide protection cover for medical industry, paramedical staff, sports wears, home furnishing as well as common people.
