Nanomaterials enhance textile properties by interacting at the molecular level, leading to attributes that are difficult to achieve with conventional materials. For example: - Antibacterial Textiles: Incorporating silver nanoparticles into fabrics can help prevent the growth of bacteria, making the textiles ideal for medical applications. - Stain and Water Resistance: Nanocoatings can make fabrics hydrophobic, thereby making them resistant to stains and water. - UV Protection: Titanium dioxide nanoparticles can absorb UV radiation, providing protective clothing that shields the wearer from harmful UV rays.
