Textile industry is searching for innovative and eco-friendly production and finishing techniques to improve the product quality. Plasma surface modification does not require the use of water and chemicals, resulting in a more economical and ecological process. In addition, a large variety of chemically active functional groups can be incorporated or generated on textile surface without affecting its bulk properties. Possible aims of this are improved hydrophilicity, antimicrobial agents/dye up taking, coating, hydrophobicity and/or oleophobicity, etc.
This article is reporting the current status of atmospheric plasma treatment on the textiles, its effect on physico-chemical properties, characterization of treated textiles by measurement of contact angle, wicking height, SEM, FTIR, XPS and future perspectives of plasma in technical textiles of Defence Application.
