Abstract :
This study investigates the impact of green-synthesized copper nanoparticles (CuNPs) on the waterproofing properties of cotton fabric. The nanoparticles were synthesized using aqueous solutions containing varying concentrations of copper(II) nitrate (1–2%), sucrose (1–3%), and a 2% dispersing agent at pH 5 and 50 °C for one hour. Pre-scoured cotton fabrics were then treated with the synthesized CuNPs at 50 °C for 60 minutes. The structural and morphological properties of the untreated and treated fabrics were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Dynamic light scattering (DLS) was employed to determine the nanoparticle size distribution. Waterproofing performance was assessed via the wicking test (AATCC 197-2013). Results demonstrated optimal waterproofing efficiency when CuNPs were synthesized using 1% copper nitrate, 1% sucrose, and 2% dispersing agent, yielding nanoparticles smaller than 100 nm. This eco-friendly synthesis route offers a cost-effective and sustainable strategy for functionalizing cotton textiles, contributing to advancements in sustainable textile engineering.
