Abstract

Novel fabric that will absorb CO2 in the environment has been produced by coating TiO2 on the fabric surface of a polyester bedspread. The products are characterized by FTIR, EDX and SEM analyses. The parameters, such as the amount of titanium added to the bath and the temperature, are studied to specify maximum CO2 absorption, which ultimately is set as 6 mL titanium source/L and 130ºC (% 95 ram). At the same time, various tests, such as pilling, abrasion, and durability of the fabric, are also performed. The fabric sample, thus produced, is also passed through the irritation tests performed by accredited laboratories.
