Green and Multifunctional Graphene-based Antibacterial Composite for Textiles
Created
Reference Number
TO175265
Summary

Graphene-based antibacterial composite materials are a class of materials that combine graphene's unique properties with antibacterial agents to create surfaces or textiles that can effectively kill or inhibit the growth of bacteria. With its inherent antibacterial properties, graphene’s large surface area and high conductivity makes it an ideal carrier for functional molecules that exhibit antibacterial properties naturally. The technology on offer is a proprietary process to prepare and application of a green and multifunctional graphene-based antibacterial composite material for textiles.

These materials can be applied to various textile materials and products, possessing antibacterial, antiviral, and deodorizing properties. Featuring high efficiency (99%), broad-spectrum coverage, non-toxicity, functionalised textiles can be used in healthcare and consumer products for long-lasting and multifunctional antibacterial properties. It is non-leaching and more eco-friendly compared to traditional chemical antibacterial products. This technology can endow textile products with antibacterial, antiviral, and deodorizing properties, enhancing the added value of traditional textile materials for safe and non-toxic antibacterial performance.

The technology owner is interested in joint R&D projects with companies looking to incorporate this graphene-based antibacterial composite and develop new eco-friendly and multifunctional antibacterial textile products.

Feature Specification

This technology comprises of graphene as the primary antibacterial component and pyrethroid antibacterial agents to form the composite.

Some features of this material include:

  • Exhibits more than 99% antibacterial (Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and Candida albicans) and antiviral (H1N1) performance
  • Superior deodorising function
  • Highly durable - able to last up to 50 washes when applied on textiles
  • Safe and non-toxic e.g., free from heavy metal ions and does not leach
