Description
Summary:This research aims to take advantage of the nanotechnology technique to improve the functional performance of therapeutic clothing. The study was conducted using nanometric graphene material, which was prepared using the modified Hummer method to produce graphene oxide and then the thermal reduction to convert the graphene oxide into graphene and perform tests on it, then it is treated Yarns used with a concentration of (0.10%) for each of the treatments using dye and cloth using printing, on six samples of yarns (100% cotton - polyester blended cotton - lycra mixed cotton - polyester - bamboo) and (single jersey fabric) and the initial results yielded The best samples are the bell cloth and the lowest samples are the 100% cotton sample. Through these results, the bell fabric was chosen for use in the study using five different concentrations of nanometer graphene (0.7% - 0.10% - 0.13% - 0.16% - 0.20% ) To treat knitted (bell) woven knitting fabrics that consist of 50% cotton and 50% polyester blends, then perform laboratory tests: square meter weight - fabric permeability of water - air permeability - electrical conductivity - bacteria resistance - resistance to friction, in order to know the change In the properties of treated fabric and to determine the best concentration of nanometric graphene, a For the results, the best concentrations are (0.2%), which is applied in the treatment of the cloth under study with nanometric graphene, where electrical conductivity, bacterial resistance, and resistance to friction gain them, and then they are suitable for clothes to stimulate the muscles. In order for graphene to perform the required performance to stimulate the muscles, a device was made using the Arduino Nano. To cause the required vibrations on the sleeve in order for the treatment to take place in the desired manner.
