The water soluble and reactive O-methyl acrylamide quaternary ammonium salt of chitosan (NMA-HTCC) was prepared with a view to develop an antibacterial finishing on cotton fabric. 2-hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan (HTCC) was synthesized by the chemical reaction of chitosan and 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride. Then, NMA-HTCC with reactive groups was synthesized by the chemical reaction of HTCC and N-(hydroxymethyl) –acrylamide, and its chemical structure was characterized by the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR). The antibacterial activities of chitosan and NMA-HTCC were tested and compared by the minimal inhibitory method. Cotton fabrics were finished by NMA-HTCC under the alkalinity condition using sodium bicarbonate as the catalyst. The antibacterial activity of cotton fabric before and after finishing was measured by the oscillation flask method. The results showed that both chitosan and NMA-HTCC had a significant antibacterial effect on staphylococcus and coli, and the antibacterial activity of NMA-HTCC was better than that of chitosan. The antibacterial activity of cotton fabric to staphylococcus and coli were significantly improved after finishing by chitosan and NMA-HTCC, and the antibacterial activity of the cotton fabric finished by NMA-HTCC was better than that finished by chitosan.

In this study, a novel fibre-reactive nanoparticle was synthesised in three steps. First a water-soluble chitosan derivative, N-[(2-hydroxy-3-trimethylammonium)propyl] chitosan chloride (short for HTCC), was prepared by reacting chitosan with 2,3-epoxypropyltrimethylammonium chloride. Second the HTCC was further modified by reacting it with N-(hydroxymethyl)- acrylamide to prepare a fibre-reactive chitosan derivative, O-methyl acrylamide quaternary ammonium salt of chitosan (short for NMA-HTCC), which can form covalent bonds with cellulose fibre under alkaline conditions. Thirdly NMA-HTCC nanoparticles were prepared by the ionotropic gelation reaction method. The particle size and TEM researches indicated that the globular NMA-HTCC nanoparticle with a size distribution of 15 - 50 nm was successfully prepared and presented good dispersity and stability. Then the NMA-HTCC nanoparticle was used for the textile finishing of cotton fabric. The modified cotton fabric demonstrated excellent durable wrinkle-resistance and antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus and Escherichia coli, even after 50 repeated launderings. Moreover the shrinkage-resistance of the modified cotton fabric was distinctly improved, and the contact angle was slightly larger, while the whiteness and mechanical properties had not changed in an obvious way.

Hydrogels, possessing high biocompatibility and adaptability to biological tissue, show great usability in medical applications. In this research, a series of novel cross-linked chitosan quaternary ammonium salt loading with gentamicin sulfate (CTMCSG) hydrogel films with different cross-linking degrees were successfully obtained by the reaction of chitosan quaternary ammonium salt (TMCS) and epichlorohydrin. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermal analysis, and scanning electron microscope (SEM) were used to characterize the chemical structure and surface morphology of CTMCSG hydrogel films. The physicochemical property, gentamicin sulphate release behavior, cytotoxicity, and antibacterial activity of the CTMCSG against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus were determined. Experimental results demonstrated that CTMCSG hydrogel films exhibited good water stability, thermal stability, drug release capacity, as well as antibacterial property. The inhibition zone of CTMCSG hydrogel films against Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus could be up to about 30 mm. Specifically, the increases in maximum decomposition temperature, mechanical property, water content, swelling degree, and a reduction in water vapor permeability of the hydrogel films were observed as the amount of the cross-linking agent increased. The results indicated that the CTMCSG-4 hydrogel film with an interesting physicochemical property, admirable antibacterial activity, and slight cytotoxicity showed the potential value as excellent antibacterial wound dressing.

In order to obtain some novel cationic surfactants with high surface activity, n-octadecyldimethylamine and epichlorohydrin were used to synthesize 2-hydroxy-1, 3-dis (chloride octadecyl dimethyl ammonium) propane, which was a kind of gemini quaternary ammonium salt. N-octadecyldimethylamine and epichlorohydrin were used to prepare active epoxy intermediate glycidyloctadecyldimethyl ammonium chlorided, and then glycidyloctadecyldimethyl ammonium chlorided was reacted with octadecyldimethyl amine hydrochloride to synthesize the gemini cationic surfactant. FTIR and 1H NMR were used to represent structure of the gemini cationic surfactant. The interface characteristics were studied in detail. The critical micellar concentration (CMC) was determined by surface tension test to obtain the values of CMC and surface tension at CMC. The foam ability and foam stability of the gemini cationic surfactant were also discussed through contrast octadecyltrimethyl ammonium chloride and cetyltrimethyl ammonium chloride.

A quaternary ammonium salt was synthesized from diethylaminoethyl methacrylate (DEAEMA) by quaternization with hexadecyl bromide. The resultant compound (Am-h) was characterized by FTIR and NMR spectroscopy. Its bactericidal activity was evaluated by determining minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) values and inhibitory zone diameter against gram positive bacteria (Streptococcus sp.) and gram negative bacteria such asAcenito baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniaeandProteus sp. respectively. The results showed that the MIC values of the synthesised compound (Am-h) were 2 μg/mL againstAcenito baumannii, Klebsiella pneumoniae, Proteus sp. and Streptococcus sp.

In this paper the different kind of quaternary ammonium salt was applied to modify the cotton fabric and then the modified cotton fabric was dyed under low salt condition. The effect of modifier structure, modifier concentration, modification time and temperature on the dyeing performances of the modified cotton fabric was investigated. The results indicated that the optimal modification condition was that the modifier was Octadecyl dimethyl hydroxyethyl quaternary ammonium nitrate, modifier concentration was 40 g/L, modification time was 40 min, modification temperature was 60 °C and the salt concentration was 25% of the conventional dosage. The K/S value, soaping fastness and breaking strength of the modified cotton fabric under low salt condition was the same level as the conventional dyeing process.
