Abstract

Abstract:
          The study aims to treat produced fabrics by some different textile structures with silver nanoparticles and Chitosan to improve their functional properties for use in the medical field, and to achieve the best textile structure and best concentrations of the treatment for both silver nanoparticles and Chitosan Fabrics were produced by wrap yarn (100% cotton) and weft yarn (100% fibran) using three textile structures (HoneyComb -Crepe –gauze), and the produced fabrics were treated with three different concentrations of silver nanoparticles (100-200-300) ml/l and three different concentrations of Chitosan (2-4-6) g/l at the installation temperature (140°C), then some laboratory tests done on fabrics produced under the research (Air permeability, tensile strength, elongation, weight per square meter, absorption time, microbial resistance ), The study found that the best textile structures producing the fabrics under research for all the properties measured by a quality factor (84.7%)  are the crepe treated with Chitosan at a concentration of (6) g/l Followed by the crepe treated by silver nanoparticles at a concentration of (300) ml/l with a quality coefficient of (81.1%),The results showed a marked improvement in most measured properties, especially microbial resistance, in proportion to their use in the medical field.
