Phytic acid, which is a naturally occurring component that is widely found in many plants,
can strongly bond toxic mineral elements in the human body, because of its six phosphate …

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were synthesized in situ on cotton, one of the most popular
cellulose materials, to achieve functionalization. The localized surface plasmon resonance …

This research aimed to optimise the structure of the multifunctional water-and oil-repellent,
antibacterial, and flame-retardant hybrid polysilsesquioxane coating to increase its washing …

Medical gauze is the most commonly used dressing in wound treatment. However, the
issues of wound margin infiltrated with exudate and tissue adhesion pose severe challenges …

This paper reviews the use of organofunctional trialkoxysilane sol-gel precursors as
contemporary finishing agents for the chemical modification of textile fibres. The structures of …

The ability of a fabric to restore its superhydrophobicity after damage is utilized to prepare
highly durable fabrics for oil/water separation. A physical self‐healing concept is a …

In this study, a long-lasting highly oleophobic “lotus effect” was developed on the cotton
fabric surface by fabricating the hierarchically roughened bumpy-surface topography with a …

Abstracts Traditional dressings tend to adhere to wounds during the healing process,
causing secondary damage and delaying wound healing during replacement. Hydrophobic …

The chapter reviews the most important antimicrobial agents for textiles and the mechanisms
of their antimicrobial activity. Structures of the leaching and the bound compounds are …

The contact layer of traditional medical dressing is easy to adhere to the new wound
granulation tissue, which brings the deficiency of secondary wound injury. This work …
