Overview

Functional textiles using thermo-fluorescent quantum dots show antibacterial properties, suggesting advancements in wearable technology.

Key Points

  • To develop smart textiles with multifunctional properties including antibacterial activity and thermo-responsive fluorescence.
  • Fabrication of textiles using carbon dot/polymer nanocomposite coatings.
  • Hydrothermal synthesis of carbon dots with specific fluorescence characteristics.
  • Application of coatings through dip-and-dry and spray methods, followed by silane modification.
  • Integration of 3D printing for creating interlocked textile architectures.
  • Textiles demonstrated strong antibacterial activity with inhibition zones of 17 mm for E. coli and 19 mm for B. subtilis.
  • Coated fabrics maintained fluorescence and showed thermo-responsive behavior, enhancing at temperatures below 37°C.
  • Significant UV-blocking capabilities were observed, with over 95% increase in UVB protection.
