Abstract

Polymer-covered textiles are flexible composite substances that include a polymer layer and a base fabric bonded together via a curing procedure to offer additional textile houses. This research focuses on obtaining a waterproof, antimicrobial and breathable cotton fabric while maintaining its essential hygienic properties. To achieve this goal, different formulations of polyurethane amide resin (PU) synthesized from vegetable oils as sustainable sources, specifically Linseed Oil and Rice Bran oil, were used. Its chemical composition was confirmed using different spectroscopic techniques. Woven cotton fabrics have been treated by immersion in modified polyurethane amide resin with amino silicone fluid used as a fabric softener, and were characterized before and after treatment. The effects confirmed the proper performance of polyurethane amide resins, promising their use as effective surface coating materials. In addition, treated cotton fabrics have water contact angles exceeding 134 degrees, with the water absorption of treated cotton fabrics decreasing . The treated cotton fabrics were shown to be breathable with vapor permeability stages of 7.6 x 10-4 gram (m day Pa)-1 which changed into much like untreated cotton material. This probable technique can therefore produce results that can be easily measured and can be a good chance for the recovery of preserved antique textiles in their display locations or out-of-door environments, similarly to specifically hydrophobic textiles for clothing or sports wear.
