A REVIEW ON APPLICATION OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IN MODERN TEXTILES

  • Dr. D. Stalin Alex

Abstract

In the 21st century, nanotechnology is known to be one of the most exciting technology.  In addition to creating miniature structures, nanotechnology also provides a scheduled mechanised technology that can provide comprehensive, inexpensive control of the composition of matter. Along with nanotechnology, nanoscience includes the study and application of very small things which can be found in all other areas of research, like physics, chemistry, biology, material science, and engineering. The inconvenience by using conventional approaches to impart such properties to textile fabrics is solved by this technology. There is no uncertainty that nanotechnology will slash through in any field of the textile industry in the coming years. In areas where revolutionary concepts are combined into long-lasting, multifunctional textile systems without sacrificing the intrinsic textile properties, including aesthetics, breathability, versatility, etc., the application of nanotechnology lies in contemporary textiles. With a focus on enhancing the different properties of textiles, the present state of nanotechnology uses in the textile area is being reviewed in current study.
