Industries worldwide have been impacted by environmental
regulations, economics, and ultimately consumers, which has led to
more thought about the development of sustainable products. The
textile industry is no exception. The preparation, dyeing, and
finishing of textile fibres requires large amounts of water and
other chemicals which may be toxic or hazardous. Green chemistry
along with other green technologies may now play a leading role in
this process. This book emphasises the importance of plasma
treatment as a green and sustainable technology. A Novel Green
Treatment for Textiles: Plasma Treatment as a Sustainable
Technology discusses the plasma treatment of textile fibres and its
environmental, economic, and social benefits. The book reviews the
general properties of textiles and provides a description of the
current treatment methods typically used today. The author then
introduces the concept of plasma and its application in treating
textile materials. The application of plasma as a pretreatment as
well as a treatment in dyeing textiles is discussed. The book
summarizes the application of plasma treatment in the printing and
finishing of textiles. Also explored is the concept of
sustainability and its role in the development of plasma treatments
in textile wet processing. The 12 Principles of Green Chemistry are
incorporated throughout the book.
