Abstract
In this study, gelatin/gum arabic/nano zinc oxide and chitosan/gum arabic/nano zinc oxide walled microcapsules which were produced by complex coaservation method and containing n-octadecane, were applied to cotton fabrics by pad-dry-cure method. It has been investigated whether zinc oxide particles in microcapsule wall improved the flame retardancy and antibacterial properties of the fabrics. In addition, the changes in the fabric properties such as air permeability, liquid absorbency and transfer were examined after the microcapsule application. Consequently, after the microcapsule application, the burning tendency of fabrics decreased, and they gained an antibacterial effect against gram-positive bacteria. Air permeability, water absorption and liquid transfer properties of microcapsule treated fabrics decreased. Besides, water absorption and transfer properties of the fabrics were found to be associated with binder, softener and the microcapsule wall polymer structures.
