報告摘要🗣：
Nanotechnology has been successfully developed in textile finishing processes to impart new functionality to textile materials. Due to availability of functional textile fabrics, design of clothing could affect not only aesthetics but also functionality. Sol-gel technology has recently been explored in the textile industry as a tool for coating fabrics. This method can modify the surface of textile materials to give various functionalities through simple and economical processes. Prof Shen will present their research work in the development of sol-gel polymer coating on cotton and wool fabrics for enhancing their performance and functionality including hydrophobic and antibacterial properties. The combination of enzymatic processing and sol-gel hybrid polymer surface coating has the potential for knitted wool fabric to achieve combined shrink-resist, hydrophobic and antibacterial properties with light-weight and soft-handle.
