In the CNC-ZnO nanohybrid, the cellulose nanocrystals (CNC) hydrolyzed from microcrystalline cellulose using a mixed-acid system of citric acid and hydrochloric acid act as substrates for growing ZnO nanocrystals. The influence of the ZnCl<sub>2</sub> concentration on the morphologies and size of the CNC-ZnO nanohybrid and the antibacterial properties was discussed. The flower-like CNC-ZnO nanohybrid can be easily doped into the PSF membrane via the phase-inversion method. This method allows the hydrophilic nanohybrid to migrate to the hydrophobic PSF surface and form a multifunctional mixed-matrix membrane (MMMs).

This study presents a novel investigation into the effect of yarn structure and weave design on the cut-protective performance of woven fabrics made from high-performance fibres. Three types of yarn were used in fabric construction, namely 100% para-aramid staple-spun yarn, para-aramid/modacrylic/stainless-steel (PMS), and UHMWPE/polyester/stainless-steel (UPS) core-spun yarns, woven into three structures such as plain, 2/2 twill, and 6-end satin. The mechanical properties, including cut, tear, puncture, and abrasion resistance, were evaluated as per EN 388:2016 and ISO 13997 standards. Among all samples, the 6-end satin fabric made from UPS yarn showed the highest cut-protective performance (12.83 N, Level C). This performance was attributed to the higher yarn mobility of the satin structure, which allowed redistribution of localized stresses during blade movement, and to the stainless-steel core that absorbed and dissipated cutting energy through elastic–plastic deformation. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that deformation of the metallic core during blade contact contributed significantly to resisting cut propagation. A two-factor factorial design analysis showed that both ends per inch (EPI) and yarn count had a statistically significant effect on cut resistance, with a notable interaction between the two parameters.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":557,"journal":{"name":"Fibers and Polymers","volume":"27 10","pages":"5097 - 5111"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2026-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148981283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Scanning electron microscope (SEM) analyses confirmed the distribution of finishing agents (sodium sulfite, sodium hydroxide, and β-cyclodextrin) and AgNPs on fiber surfaces. Mechanical evaluations revealed bending rigidity values on the fabric surface of 1.85 mg cm (control), 1.58 mg·cm (mercerized with NaOH), and 1.96 mg cm (sulfonated), and on the back side of 4.87, 3.42, and 4.7 mg cm, indicating that sulfonation preserved mechanical integrity while mercerization with NaOH increased flexibility.

Color fastness and antiperspirant tests demonstrated excellent stability, with color change and staining numbers of 5 for all treatments. Antibacterial activity against <i>Escherichia coli</i> (<i>E. coli</i>) and <i>Staphylococcus aureus</i> (<i>S. aureus</i>) was evaluated using bacterial counting and inhibition zone measurements.

Mercerization and sulfonation alone also improved antibacterial effects, yielding 15–29% and 10–20% growth reductions, respectively.

To address this challenge, a synergistic “oxidative activation–polymer coating” strategy was employed to engineer the fabric surface in this work.
