Abstract

Natural fibres are one of the primary materials in manufacturing medical and protective textiles and are extensively used as wound dressings and hospital clothing to protect patients and healthcare workers against highly infectious diseases. Such materials, however, suffer from a number of drawbacks that limit their applications. One major drawback is the growth of microorganisms on the surface of the textiles as they provide an environment favourable to their growth. A variety of antimicrobial agents have been used to improve the antimicrobial activities of these products. An alternative is to use textile composites with high antimicrobial activity that offer great opportunities for use in the preparation of such medical and protective textiles as wound dressings. This chapter focuses on the limitations associated with natural textiles used in the fabrication of medical and protective textile products and introduces strategies to address these limitations. © 2022 Elsevier Ltd.
