Abstract:

In order to evaluate the practical antimicrobial effect of chloramine fabrics as wiping cloths in the field of public health,the optimal chloramine fabric activation process of polyester/polyamide microfiber fabric grafted with 3–allyl–5,5–dimethylhydantoin (ADMH) was investigated based on the content of active chlorine on the fabric. The optimal activation process was reached when the active chlorine concentration of sodium hypochlorite solution was 3 000 mg/kg, the soaking time was 20 min, and the fabric was dried at 60 ℃ for 20 min. The chloramine fabric was tested for antibacterial performance against Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) and Escherichia coli (E. coli), and for antivirus property against influenza A virus H1N1. The treated fabric was used for wiping the intensive care unit (ICU) ward facilities in a hospital and public canteen dining tables. The results show that the antibacterial ratio against both S. aureus and E. coli reaches 99.999%, and the antiviral activity ratio against H1N1 is 99.94%. The amount of residual bacteria on the surface of the cleaned ICU facility is zero. After wiping thirty dining tables successively with the same chloramine fabric, neither the surfaces of the wiped 30 dining tables nor the wiping fabrics were found to be contaminated with bacteria. Moreover, the chloramine fabric shows a good activation and regeneration property of active chlorine when it is treated with sodium hypochlorite solution.

Key words: functional textiles, antibacterial fabric, N-halamine grafting, antimicrobial property, activation and regeneration, active chlorine
