Abstract
In this research, N-hydroxymethylacrylamide (N-MA) was first treated on cotton fabric by pad-dry processes following with argon plasma treatment to induce the graft copolymerization of N-MA on the fabric, and then the fabric was chlorinated with sodium hypochlorite to impart its antimicrobial property. The presence of N-MA on the cotton fabric surface was confirmed with Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The breaking strength, weight change, crystallinity, and antimicrobial property of the modified fabric were also characterized. The results showed that the fabric completely inactivated S. aureus and E. coli O157:H7 within 10 min of contact time and the antimicrobial property was rechargeable.
