Textile engineering surface treatment

Major Applications Optical engineering applications, sensors, making masks, electrorheo-logicval materials, surface treatment of copper, coloring zinc, aluminum, " corrosion testing," adhesive," lubricants, textiles, food storage, determine bacterial growth, " pharmaceutical preparations"... 

Ever since the discovery of the steam engine, the precipitation of insoluble calcium salts in boilers and pipes has been causing severe problems. Thus, the discovery that low concentrations of phosphoric, pyrophosphoric or bisphosphonic acids can prevent scale had enormous industrial importance. This information, combined with the characteristic ability of BPs to chelate virtually every heavy metal, laid the basis for their wide industrial importance [4], As a result, bisphosphonates are in current use in a wide variety of industrial areas, as scale inhibitors, for the treatment of metal and other surfaces, in water treatment, in the textile industry, in the detergent and cosmetic industry, in the polymer industry, and several others [4],... 

From Table 2 it can be seen that in many instances these resins are used for applications which cannot be considered to be of an engineering nature, eg surface coating and textile treatment. However, composite materials, eg plywood, laminates, prepared using these materials may possibly be considered an engineering material. Moulding powders produced from these two resins are nearer true engineering materials in so much as they could be moulded into engineering shapes and components. 

Since polymeric nanofibers are widely used in many industries such as textiles, composites, filtration, woimd dressing, tissue engineering and electronics, the surface properties of these fibers are of utmost importance. The surface properties of such fibers can be modified utilizing various techniques or treatments to suit particular application.
