Study on Copper Ion Deposited Polyester Fabric

Hajara Farzana, Neelakandan

Deposition of thin metal particles on textiles can be more advantages than the conventional method of incorporating metals into textiles. A single bath method of synthesizing the copper nanoparticles and deposition of the same on polyester fabric is carried out using electroplating technique. The copper nanoparticles were generated in the treatment bath by increasing the time from 30 to 150 minutes. The effect of varying the time for the generation of copper ions, on the deposition percentage was studied. Further, copper nanoparticle deposited fabric is studied for its property like morphological structure and electrical conductivity. With an increase in treatment time, decrease in the electrical resistance of the fabric was observed from 300KΩ/cm for untreated polyester to 118KΩ/cm for copper ion deposited fabric with a treatment time of 150 minutes.
