摘要

In this study, a new approach was investigated for coloring cotton fabrics with selenium nanoparticles (Se-NPs) to get a colored and multi-functional fabric in one step. Se-NPs were synthesized in a green manner and deposited onto a cotton fabric using IR-dyeing equipment to provide a number of benefits, including coloring, antibacterial properties, and ultraviolet (UV) protection. The characterization of the Se-NPs was performed using TEM analysis. The synthesis of spherically well-dispersed Se-NPs was confirmed using TEM, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses. The successful deposition of Se-NPs on the dyed cotton fabric surface was confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDX), and XRD analyses. The color characteristics, fastness properties, antibacterial activity, and UV protection of the colored fabrics were investigated to study the effect of Se-NPs concentration on the tested parameters. The results showed that the colored fabrics had good fastness properties, remarkable UV protection, and a high antibacterial effect. Furthermore, cotton fabrics were not toxic to HFB4 cell lines, as revealed by viability tests. Therefore, the multi-functional cotton fabrics obtained can be efficiently used in the medical field.
