IMPROVING THE SPECIFICATION OF MILITARY CLOTHING FABRICS BY TREATING THEM WITH NANOSCALE TITANIUM OXIDE

The research focuses on enhancing the physical and antimicrobial properties of military clothing fabrics by applying nano titanium oxide (TiO) to two different fabric compositions: 65% cotton and 35% polyester and 35% cotton and 65% polyester.Here's a breakdown of the findings:1 -Nano titanium oxide (TiO) was applied to the fabrics at a concentration of 2%.-The treatment aimed to improve physical properties such as cutting strength and elongation ratio and to enhance the fabric's resistance to microbial contamination. Improvement in Physical Properties-Cutting Strength: The treated fabrics showed a significant increase in cutting strength compared to untreated fabrics.-Elongation Ratio: Both fabric types also demonstrated an increase in elongation ratio, meaning they could stretch more before breaking, which indicates improved flexibility and durability.
