Özet
In this study which can be seen as a nanomaterial or nanobiotechnology study; Metal and Metal+gas ions implanted to the polyester fabric's surfaces and by the help of this, lots of different abilities were provided to textiles. Without changing any structural properties of textiles, Cr, Ti ve C ions implanted to the Polyester fabric's surfaces and created friction and corrosion resistance. Also by the help of Ag and TiO2implantation, Polyester fabrics acquired antibacterial ability againist very dangerous pathogenes like Hospital infections. In this study, titanium, carbon and crom was implanted to the Polyester fabric's surfaces and these fabric's corrosion and friction coefficients were compared with untreated Polyester's corrosion and friction coefficient. As a result it has been seen that when ion doses increase, corrosion and friction ratios decrease. This had seen at every fabrics. After this phase, according to the novel applications on nanomedicine, medical textiles were investigated and Ag and TiO2implanted to some types of medical textiles to provide them antibacterial ability. These fabrics antibacterial efficiencies were compared with medical textiles which modyfied with nanoparticles.
