Donghua University Research And Develop New Fabrics Sun Decontamination And Deodorization

This is a blessing for those who do not want to wash clothes. Recently, scientists at Donghua University in Shanghai successfully developed a new type of cotton fabric.

Sunshine

"Intimate contact", it can self decontamination, deodorization, and even after washing and drying, this performance is intact.

Scientists say future jeans,

Socks

When you need to touch the sun, you can recover like new.

Long Ming and Wu Deyong of Donghua University published the results of the research published in the American Chemical Society.

And interface.

They pointed out in the article that the new cotton fabrics are unique in that they consist of nanoparticles coated with titanium dioxide and nitrogen.

As long as sunlight comes, titanium dioxide and nitrogen coating will decompose stains on fabrics and remove odor.

In fact, scientists have developed a self cleaning material that can also be self illuminated in the past. However, it can only perform self cleaning under UV direct radiation.

Scientists have been hoping to create a fabric that can initiate self-cleaning reactions under the weak sunlight.

"We are developing a new fabric that can self wash, remove stains and bacteria when exposed to ordinary sunlight."

The researchers pointed out that when exposed to certain light, the white titanium dioxide used in the fabric can decompose and kill microorganisms, so titanium dioxide is also widely used in white paint, food and sunscreen cream for women, and is used for making self cleaning materials, windows and tiles.

The results showed that orange stains could be removed effectively when exposed to sunlight.

The study also found that adding nano silver and iodine nanoparticles to the new fabric accelerated the decontamination process.
