Nanotechnology surface modification techniques
NANOTECHNOLOGY SURFACE MODIFICATION TECHNIQUES
Natural fibres
Natural fibres are any hair-like raw material directly obtainable through an animal, vegetable, or mineral source that can be convertible, after spinning, into yarns and then into woven cloth.
Plasma technology
Plasma technology is a surface treatment process of textiles, adding extra value to functional textiles such as oil and water repellent, better fibre resistance that gives protection against aggressive chemicals.
Surface design
Surface design is a significant factor in fashion design now, and even more in the future due to environmental issues, consumer demands and new technology such as nanotechnology makes it possible to manipulate fabric properties at the textile surface
Felt
Felt (fabric) is the name of a unique textile fabric made of a random fibrous material classified according to a type of manufacture.
Textile substrate
The textile substrate is a term used to describe a substance which upon an enzyme reacts (surface treatments). In other words, compounds that undergo reactions with enzymes. Included are different colourants dyes, natural sizing and thickener materials, such as starches and cellulose derivatives, etc.
Catalyst
Catalyst is a substance that increases the rate of a chemical reaction but which is left unchanged by the result.
Water jet fading
Water jet fading is a term used to describe a particular textile finishing process for denim garment.
