Deposition of microencapsulated essential oil extracted from Neem seeds on the surface of plasma pretreated cellulose knitwear

In this paper, microencapsulation of Neem essential oil (Azadirachta indica) was carried out by solvent evaporation technique. Cellulose knitwear was treated with Neem essential oil, which has a wide range of antibacterial properties. Before treatment, cellulose knitwears were pretreated with oxygen and argon low-pressure cold plasma under defined conditions. The synthesized microcapsules were applied to the textile material by a spraying method. Surface analysis of treated samples were done by FE-SEM microscope, while the microbiological tests by Agar diffusion.
