Wrinkling Wrinkling of cotton clothes is an everyday problem.
Ironing requires time & hard work
Wastes money and sometimes damages clothes.

Why Cotton Fabric Wrinkle
Breaking of hydrogen bonding between polymer chains especially in amorphous region.
This effect is much more when cotton is wet e.g. washing.
When stress is applied to the moisture containing cellulosic fibres, the internal polymer chains of the amorphous areas are free to move
In the absence of any restoring force available these newly formed wrinkles will remain there
Introduction of the cross-link between cellulosic chains is one of the solution to this problem.

Formaldehyde-based Cross-linkers for Cotton
Formaldehyde based cross-linkers have been used in the textile industry from 1930s.
However formaldehyde is a recognised irritant and carcinogen.
Other concern for the use of formaldehyde based cross-linkers.
Regulations on formaldehyde release are becoming stricter and stricter.

Nano Technology for Textile
To achieve Unique and valuable properties
Nanotechnology is increasingly attracting worldwide attention because it is widely perceived as offering huge potential in a wide range of end uses.
Attraction for not only scientists and researchers but also businesses, due to their huge economical potential.
Enhancement of textile materials by nanotechnology is expected to become a trillion dollar industry

Nano Technology for Easy Care Finishing of Cotton
Performance of the cross-linkers based on carboxylic acid could be increased by using nano TiO2.
Most of the research is emphasized on the use of effective but very expensive BTCA by using unconventional UV curing treatment

ConclusionsIt was possible to enhance the performance of the citric acid as
a formaldehyde free cross-linker by using nano titanium dioxide with conventional pad-dry-cure technique.
Nano titanium dioxide was only needed 0.1% for best results.
Nano titanium dioxide was also effective in improving the tensile strength of the treated fabric.
Handle of the treated fabric was also improved by the incorporation of nano titanium dioxide with citric acid as compared to alone citric acid treated fabric.
