Fibers are the unit component for product development. They can be divided into two types: synthetic and natural fibers. Recently, emerging nanotechnology has played a vital role in advancing next-generation fabrics. The nanomaterials provide several unique properties such as higher conductivity, self-cleaning, water-resistant, and others. Owing to their advanced properties, the fabrics are being developed by coating and integrating with nanomaterials. Therefore, in the presented work two cotton samples were modified with titanium dioxide (TiO2) and zinc oxide (ZnO). These samples were further examined under various techniques including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-visible spectroscopy, X-ray fluorescence (XRF), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Furthermore, these samples were evaluated at varying wavelengths with UV light and the obtained results demonstrated that the nano-coated fiber samples can be differentiated at 365 nm.

An extremely worrying and alarming increase in the level of multiple drug resistance is reported in Sudan, in which bacterial strains are becoming resistant to many commonly available antibiotics. Eventually, it is becoming extremely difficult to treat debilitating infections. In search of promising solutions to this arising crisis, Camellia sinensis silver nanoparticles were synthesized using the green synthesis method. The synthesis of the Camellia sinensis silver nanoparticles is confirmed using analytical methods as ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, X-ray diffractometer, and scanning electron microscopy. Using the ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, an absorption band of 412 nm was observed. Furthermore, scanning electron microscopy revealed the presence of silver nanoparticles which fell within the range of 1–100 nm, and X-ray diffractometer analysis showed three intense peaks with a maximum intense peak at 24.3 theta. Nanoparticles distribution between 12 nm and 64 nm was observed with an average diameter of 18.115 nm. It also revealed orthorhombic-shaped nanoparticles. The synthesized nanoparticles showed antimicrobial activity against Staphylococcus aureus with a zone of inhibition of 7 mm, but none was detected against Escherichia coli. The obtained physicochemical properties were correlated with the antibacterial activity of the silver nanoparticles.

The synthesized oxide (SnO2) nanoparticles by sol-gel method were characterized using UV-Visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis), Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-rays diffraction(XRD) and Scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Using X-rays diffraction analysis different parameter were calculated such as crystallite size, d-spacing, dislocation density, number of unit cell, cell volume, morphological index, micro strain and instrumental broadening. The average particle size was 28.396 nm. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that SnO2 nanopartcles are uniformly distributed. Optical properties such as band gap (energy gap = 3.6 eV) was calculated from UV-Visible spectroscopy. The characterized particles were used as photocatalyst for the degradation of Eosin dye in aqueous solution under UV light. The effect of different parameters i.e irradiation time, initial dye concentration, pH of the medium and catalyst weight on percent degradation was also studied. Mmaximum dye degradation was found at 220 minutes time interval that was 92 % using 10 ppm solution. At pH 5 the degradation of dye was found to be 94%. The catalyst dose of 0.06 g was found to be the optimum weight for the best photo catalytic degradation of Eosin Y.

Antimony sulfide (Sb2S3) nanostructure was synthesized using a 600 W microwave irradiation technique. The precursors including Sb(CH3CO2)3 and Na2S2O3.5H2O were dissolved into 50 mL ethylene glycol (EG) solution with containing 0 and 1 g of hydroxyethyl cellulose (HEC). Phase, morphology and optical properties of the as-synthesized products were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-visible spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL). Energy band gap of Sb2S3 nanostructure exhibits the value of 1.90 and 2.06 eV for synthesizing condition with and without HEC containing, respectively.

Zinc sulfide (ZnS) quantum dots (QDs) were encapsulated in ultraviolet (UV)-curable sealant upon the UV irradiation of the 365 nm. The QDs-sealant films were characterized with scanning electron microscopy (SEM), UV-visible spectroscopy and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. Based on SEM analysis, the QDs encapsulated in UV-cured sealant clearly exhibited the formation of different size aggregates with a strong chemical bondage between the QDs and sealant. Optical absorption spectra showed strong red-shift for the QDs encapsulated in the UV sealant due to the aggregates of the QD nanoparticles. Room-temperature PL spectra have demonstrated that the pure QDs showed green emission at 517 nm while QDs-sealant film gave off cyan-blue PL with a strong and broad peak at 485 nm. Our results have demonstrated that the PL efficiency of QDs encapsulated in UV sealant matrix is higher than that of the QDs or UV sealant due to passivation of surfaces.

The aim of this paper was to enhance paper strength in NaOH/thiourea aqueous solution at room temperature. Paper from cotton pulp was saturated with room temperature NaOH/thiourea aqueous solution and placed at a fixed temperature (8, 15, and 20 °C) for a period of time (1 h, 2 h, 4 h, and 6 h). The morphology, X-ray diffraction (XRD), mechanical properties, and density of paper were characterized. The results indicated the paper was self-reinforced. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) photographs indicated that the structure of the treated papers was increasingly compact with decreasing temperature. The XRD results showed that the crystallinity degree of the paper decreased from 80.0% to 60.0%. The stress at break of the treated papers increased by more than fivefold. The wet tensile strength of the treated papers increased remarkably.
