SiO2 and TiO2 sols were successfully synthesized by using sodium silicate and titanium chloride as Si and Ti sources. SiO2-TiO2 sol coated polyester/cotton fabric was fabricated by deepcoating method and using SiO2 , TiO2 sols as coating materials. SiO2 -TiO2 coated fabric were characterized by XRD, FTIR, TGA, SEM and EDX. From SEM image, it showed the SiO2, TiO2 particles of 20-30 nm which well deposited on fabric surface. TGA result revealed the significant improvement of thermal resistance and stability of SiO2-TiO2 coated fabric as compared to those of uncoated fabric. |
