Surface Modification on Rabbit Hair Fiber for Anti-Static and Ultraviolet Protective Properties via ZnO Nanopartciles

Article Preview

Abstract:

Rabbit hair fibers have been modified by ZnO nanoparticles for improving anti-static and ultraviolet protective properties. Field emission scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction patterns were used to reveal the physicochemical processes of nanoparticles loading onto fibers. The mass specific resistance value of treated fibers is significantly decreased by over 107 times than that of raw fibers, which is 10.40 MΩ·g/cm2 after treatment. The ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) value is 102.1 and ultraviolet radiation A (UVA) blocking reaches 97.9%. Meanwhile the mechanical property improves slightly.
