Abstract
The present paper describes a novel multi-functional Calotropis gigantea (CG) fabric with durable antibacterial property and comfortable wearability for various applications. First, antibacterial microspheres (AMs) were prepared by self-assembly of silk fibroin (SF), chitosan (CS) and nano-silver microspheres (NSMs). Oxygen low-temperature plasma (OLTP) treatment was used to improve the adhesion between AMs and CG yarn. The AMs modified CG fabric has soft hand feeling, high moisture regain (10.37 ± 1.87%), good breathability, strong wrinkle resistance, and durable antibacterial properties. The antibacterial rate of the modified CG fabric against Escherichia coli (E. Coil) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. Aureus) is as high as 99.9 ± 0.1%, and it still has an antibacterial activity after washing 20 times (90.24 ± 0.65% and 80.25 ± 1.14%, respectively). The in vivo biocompatibility test showed clear signs of angiogenesis at the implantation site in the rats. Thus, this study offers the foundation for the development of functional CG fiber-based biomedical textiles.
