An innovative approach for antibacterial and anti-static nylon woven fabric through eco-friendly synthesized chitosan nanoparticles

Eco-synthesis of CNPs using sodium tripolyphosphate and fabrication of the antistatic and antibacterial textiles characterized by SEM and FTIR.The zone of inhibition of CNP-treated samples (5 g/L, 10 g/L, and 15 g/L) against Staphylococcus aureus was 22, 25, and 25.5 mm, and against Escherichia coli was 23.5 mm, 24 mm, and 26 mm, respectively, using the disc diffusion method.The conductivity of 15% CNP-coated surfaces was improved; the current flow was 10.45µA, and tensile strength was enhanced at 20.61%.
