This book covers the significant advances in the field of nano technology in textiles. It comprises of advances made in various areas of nano technology applications in textiles. It would prove beneficial to both the teaching and student communities. Next to technical textiles, nano technology is the dominant area in the field of textiles, as in any other discipline. Nano fibre are largely produced by electros pinning technique. The two major areas of nano technology in textiles are in fibre manufacture and chemical finishes. Metal oxides are used as the finishing agents for fabrics and garments. Each type of nano particle applied on textile materials imparts desired functional properties. The nano finishes outscore the conventional finishes in many aspects. However, their safety and environmental effects are debatable and under research. It is hoped that the book would prove useful reading material to students and faculty members.
