Figure 2.5 Mechanisms of toxicity of nano-particles (NP) against bacteria. NP and their ions (e.g., silver and zinc) can produce free radicals, resulting in induction of oxidative stress (i.e., reactive oxygen species; ROS). The produced ROS can irreversibly damage bacteria (e.g., their membrane, DNA, and mitochondria), resulting in bacterial death. Adapted with permission from reference [127].

Preface

Nanotechnology has been booming in many areas, including materials science, mechanics, electronics, optics, medicine, plastics, energy, electronics, and aerospace. Nowadays, it is playing an extraordinary role in the functional finishing of textiles and polymers. It has sought to improve existing material performances and develop fibers, composites, and novel finishing methods. Application of nanoparticles has imparted novel characteristics to textiles such as flame retardation, UV-blocking, water repellence, self-cleaning, and antimicrobial properties. This book on “Nanomaterials in the Wet Processing of Textiles” presents diverse aspects of nanomaterial application in the textile industry, approaches used for synthesis and application, as well as strategies to remove toxic effluents from wastewaters employing state-of-the-art nanoadsorbents. We have no doubt that the readers will benefit from this book which covers latest developmental work pertaining to functionalization of textiles using diverse nanomaterials. We would also like to thank all the authors who contributed the chapters and provided their valuable ideas and knowledge in this book. We are also very thankful to the editorial board, and in particular to Martin Scrivener for the generous cooperation at every stage of the book production.
