Original Abstract

Finishing agent; chitosan/polyethylene glycol-dimethyl siloxane (CS-PEG-DMS) was used for the treatment of cellulosic fabrics (dyed and white) to impart antibacterial activity and to enhance the performance properties, like crease recovery angle (CRA) and tensile strength (TS) too. The effect of chitosan, polyethylene glycol-dimethyl siloxane, Butantetracarboxylic acid (BTCA), sodium hypophosite (SHP) concentrations were studied and optimized to incorporate the finishing agent chemically with the cellulosic fabrics. The treated fabrics show high antibacterial activity against gram -ve, and gram + ve bacteria species (Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus respectively). In addition, the performance of the finished fabrics was improved.
