| Abstract | Multifunctioalization of cotton fabrics was developed by a novel finishing formulation. The method is based on chitosan-N-polyethylene glycol graft copolymer along with citric acid and sodium hypophosphite (SHP) as catalysts. Treatment of the cotton fabric resulted in the chemical attachment of the copolymer to the cotton fabric via bridging-based esterification where the latter involves reaction of one molecule of the polycarboxylic acid (citric acid) with both the amino group of the copolymer and the hydroxyl groups of cotton. Inclusion of the copolymer in the crosslinked structure of cotton as well as by hydrogen bonding and van der Waals forces are additionally possible. Synthesis of the copolymer was raised out by the reaction of chitosan with methoxy polyethylene glycol (MPEG) aldehyde followed by the reduction with sodium borohydride. MPEG was prepared by oxidation of PEG with acetic anhydride in dimethyl sulphoxide at room temperature. Methoxypolyethylene glycol-N-chitosan graft copolymer (MPEG-N-CTS) structure was confirmed by IR, NMR, X-RD and TGA techniques. The copolymer is soluble in water. The pad dry-cure method was used for the cotton fabrics treatment with aqueous solution of prepared copolymer along with citric acid and SHP. The so treated fabrics were monitored for copolymer content (expressed as N%), crease recovery, tensile strength, elongation at break, air permeability, water permeability, roughness, bursting strength and antibacterial activity. Fabric performances based on the outputs of these measurements advocate these multifunctionalized fabrics for use as medical textile. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
