In addition, the wool hydrolysate obtained from the waste wool was also applied to these fabrics by using exhaustion method and the fabric properties were compared. In order to investigate the washing resistance of the process, experiments were performed with 1% and 3% potassium aluminum sulfate KAl(SO₄)2 and aluminum sulfate Al2(SO4) under the same conditions. The chemical and morphological surface properties of the fabrics were examined by using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). It was observed that the capillarity, water vapor and air permeability, and handle values of fabrics treated with wool hydrolysate were better and more resistant to consecutive washings than the fabrics treated with commercial recipes. Furthermore, this process did not have a side effect on the color difference and whiteness values of the fabrics treated with wool hydrolysate. Thus, an example of sustainable, economical and environmental study was done.","PeriodicalId":265465,"journal":{"name":"Humidity Sensors [Working Title]","volume":"88 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132424306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Precise evaluation of humidity percentage in air is the need of various applications. Graphene and its composites have shown great potential in performing as humidity sensors owing to enormous surface area, very low electrical noise, high electrical conductivity, mechanical and thermal stability and high room temperature mobility. There is no such extensive review on graphene-based devices for humidity sensing applications. This review extensively discusses graphene-based devices intended towards sensing humidity, starting from the methods of synthesizing graphene, its electronic and mechanical properties favoring sensing behavior and different types of sensing mechanisms. The review also studies the performance and recent trends in humidity sensor based on graphene, graphene quantum dots, graphene oxide, reduced graphene oxide and various composite materials based on graphene such as graphene/polymer, graphene/metal oxide or graphene/metal. Discussions on the limitations and challenges of the graphene-based humidity sensors along with its future trends are made.","PeriodicalId":265465,"journal":{"name":"Humidity Sensors [Working Title]","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-05-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130360760","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
