Özet

In this study, it was aimed to use the synthesized Ag-TiO2 and commercial ZnPT complexes in the development of antimicrobial textile. Textile materials containing 70% cotton and 30% polyester were used in the study. The complexes were applied on textile material by exhausted process. Antimicrobial activity of textile samples was determined by AATCC 147 method. As a result of these studies, Ag- TiO2 and ZnPT complexes have antimicrobial activity against all test microorganisms including E. cloaceae, E. faecalis, S. typhimirium, S. epidermidis, P. vulgaris, Y. pseudotuberculosis, S. aureus, P. aeruginosa, K. pneumoniae, B. subtilis, E. coli, L. monocytogenes and C. albicans. Optimum conditions of application on textile material were determined that application at 50oC for 60 min and drying at 70 degrees C for 60 min. Optimum concentration values for the application were determined as 4g/L for Ag-TiO2 and 0.01g/L for ZnPT, and these values were shown as bacteriocidal concentration (MBC) by shake-flask method. After the application carried out under optimum conditions, it was observed that the textile samples gained serious antimicrobial properties and formed an inhibition zone larger than 30 mm around the textile materials. Furthermore, it has been determined that the antimicrobial activities of textile materials were durable up to 10 repeated washings and it was permanent for more than 25 days under open air and room temperature conditions. When Ag-TiO2 and ZnPT are compared, it can be said that ZnPT is more active and more durable. As a result of this study, it has been revealed that Ag-TiO2 and ZnPT complexes can be used in the development of antimicrobial textiles.
