The Implementation of Chitosan into Cotton Fabric

Chitosan, produced by chitin hydrolysis, has been highly evaluated for medical purposes. For the last decade, its application in textiles and biomaterials has significantly growth. It was well implemented in man-made fiber, but in natural ones achieved properties were not durable. Therefore, in this paper two different chitosan were implemented into cellulose material. The following methods of analysis were used for physical-chemical characterization: Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FTIR), electrokinetic potential (EKA) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TG). For the purpose of durability investigation, the characterization was performed after one washing cycle.
