Nanotechnology-based textile coating is a combined approach to textile engineering which
mainly relies on using nanoscale materials and novel methods to produce smart finishing.
Several methods have been introduced to generate smart coatings on textiles including the
sol–gel technique, layer-by-layer technique, cross-linking by polymers, and thin film
deposition. Nanofibre coating of different metallic and nonmetallic substrates has been
intensively considered for sensory and infrastructure purposes. This chapter provides an …
