Silica nanoparticles prepared by the StOber method were functionalized with epoxy, amine, and thiol groups, which were confirmed by Fourier transform infrared analysis. The functionalized silica nanoparticles were used to produce Pickering emulsions, and the exposed surface was used for the attachment of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) via the low-temperature chemical reduction method. The morphology and structure of the Ag-SiO2 Janus particles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, scanning transmission electron microscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, and UV-vis spectroscopy. Because of their specific functionalities, these Ag-SiO2 Janus particles are proposed for applications on textile substrates, as they can overcome several drawbacks of direct application of AgNPs on textiles, such as leaching, agglomeration, and instability during storage.展开更多

Experts estimate that their annual consumption is increasing by 3,8 % in average and it can reach about 24 million tons in 2010. Within this the consumption of each sector is increasing. Roughly one third of the world’s fibre consumption is used for production of technical textiles.The term "technical textiles" covers many fields of application that are mirrored in the terminology of Techtextil which is very much used generally when grouping these products. Techtextil differentiates 11 groups and knitted fabrics and products made by knitting technologies can be found in each of them.The lecture introduces such applications on many examples. We think that use of knitting technologies in the development of technical and medical textiles can help this sector to survive this difficult period of the European textile industry.展开更多
