Abstract

The outstanding advantages of N-halamine materials over other antimicrobial materials are their durable and rechargeable antimicrobial properties, as well as their efficacies in inactivating a broad spectrum of pathogens. Theoretically, the oxidative chlorine of antimicrobial cotton coated with N-halamine hydantoin diol can be restored upon loss of its biocidal efficacy after exposure to ultraviolet light. In this work nano-titania particles were added into the coating solutions containing N-halamine diol and 1,2,3,4-butanetetracarboxylic acid (BTCA), and the coatings were applied to produce antimicrobial cellulose with improved UV stability. The treated cotton fabrics were characterized by FT-IR, SEM, XRD, and XPS. The effects of the coatings on tensile strength and wrinkle recovery angle were investigated. Biocidal efficacies of fabrics coated with hydantoin diol and diol/TiO2 against Staphylococcus aureus (ATCC 6538) and Escherichia coli O157:H7 (ATCC 43895) were determined using a modified AATCC 100-1999 method and showed excellent antimicrobial properties against these two bacterial species within a brief contact times. It was found that the addition of Nano-TiO2 in the antimicrobial coatings, especially rutile titanium dioxide, could improve the UV light stability of the chlorinated fabrics coated with hydantoin diol significantly. The UV light stability of N-halamine coatings were enhanced with increasing amounts of rutile TiO2.
