ABSTRACT
Abstract Cross-linkers have great importance in textile due to the widespread utilization of cellulosic fibers for clothing. Unfortunately, the acute toxicity of formaldehyde-based resins and the poor performance of non-formaldehyde resins still keep the research door open for scientists in this area. Herein, we demonstrated copper nanoparticles induced trimesic acid grafted cellulose as a sustainable solution for multifunctional easy-care clothing. Our treated fabric presents crease recovery angle value of 248° comparable to that of most promising citric acid-based cross-linkers at the chemical concentration of trimesic acid as low as 2% with a sweeping improvement of around 30% in strength retention, not reported earlier. The relatively low fabric stiffness, without any yellowing, is contributing to the comfort and aesthetic demand while nanoparticles induction promoting utmost antimicrobial need. For the first time, the superiority of the development was validated by interlacing the fabric/finish traits with sustainability building blocks that provide the step forward for rapid industrialization. Furthermore, environmental, health, and safety mapping comparison provides a better understanding of the intensity of hazards that different finishing crosslinkers pose on the environment and public health. With improved performance and superior sustainability, such fabric can act as a preferable alternative to the multifunctional easy-care fabric market.
