Finds documents with exactly this word group, in exactly this word order and spelling (e.g. "employer branding").
Finds documents with both search terms (e.g. sales AND bonus).
Finds documents with one or the other search term (e.g. porsche OR volkswagen).
Finds documents with all search terms. Blank space is understood as AND (e.g. man robot production).
Finds documents with no appearance of the word behind NOT (e.g. ford NOT "harrison ford").
Finds documents where the search term is mentioned at least "n" times."n" may be any number (e.g. COUNT(gear)>8).
Finds documents with both search terms in any word order, permitting "n" words as a maximum distance between them. Best choose between 15 and 30 (e.g. NEAR(recruit, professionals, 20)).
Finds documents with the search term in word versions or composites. The asterisk * marks whether you wish them BEFORE, BEHIND, or BEFORE and BEHIND the search term (e.g. lightweight*, *lightweight, *lightweight*).
Finds documents with the search term in different spellings. "?" allows only one character (e.g. organi?ation).
Special characters are understood as AND (e.g. Miller Bros. & Sons).

Abstract

The article presents a comprehensive study on the development of self-cleaning and antibacterial cotton fabrics by coating them with a photocatalytic carbon nitride/polypyrrole (CNPPY) composite. The research addresses the challenges of traditional photocatalyst coatings, such as limited light absorption and adverse effects on fabric properties. The CNPPY composite is synthesized through oxidative chemical polymerization and applied to cotton fabrics using a modified pad dry cure method. The resulting fabrics exhibit enhanced multifunctional properties, including efficient self-cleaning, stain removal, and resistance to bacterial growth under sunlight. The study employs various characterization techniques to confirm the successful coating and interaction of CN and PPY with the cotton fabric. Photocatalytic experiments demonstrate the superior photocatalytic activity of the CNPPY-coated fabrics, highlighting their potential for reducing water consumption and water pollution. The article also discusses the antimicrobial properties of the coated fabrics and their reusability, making it a valuable resource for researchers and professionals in the textile and chemical industries.
