Tailoring of Antibacterial and UV-protective Cotton Fabric by an in situ Synthesis of Silver Particles in the Presence of a Sol-gel Matrix and Sumac Leaf Extract

This research presents a new procedure for the chemical modification of cotton fabric, which included a ‘’green’’ in situ synthesis of silver particles using an extract of sumac leaves as a reducing agent. To increase the adsorption ability of silver cations, a sol-gel matrix was previously created...
