  Abstract

Recent advancements in biotechnology and material science have led to the development of fibers infused with biologically active compounds, highlighting their potential in the textile industry. This research focused on creating functional viscose fibers embedded with menthol, a compound recognized for its antimicrobial properties. To address the volatility and insolubility of menthol, microencapsulation technology was employed to enhance its stability and solubility during the fiber production process. Polyurethane was selected as the shell material and the resulting microcapsules were successfully integrated into the viscose spinning process. The resulting fibers demonstrated excellent antimicrobial performance, indicating their promising application in antimicrobial textiles. This research emphasizes the viability of using microencapsulated bioactive compounds to enhance the functionality of textile materials.
