  Abstract

The aim of this study to develop the multifunctional cotton curtain which has the properties of electromagnetic shielding, UV protection, flame retardancy and antibacterial. In addition, a new azobenzene Schiff base UV-protective chemical (UPC) has been also synthesized. For this purpose, firstly, the cotton woven fabric with stainless steel wires was produced in order to provide the electromagnetic shielding properties. After then, UV protection and the flame retardancy treatments were, respectively, applied. During UV applications, the effects of variable parameters such as temperature, time, concentration of UPC and concentration of auxiliary chemicals were also investigated. After these finishing treatments, the tests and analyzes of the fabrics such as the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness, UV transmittance, FTIR, burning, LOI, TGA, and antibacterial tests were carried out and the obtained results were evaluated. The general average of the EMSE values of the fabric was found in the range of 10–20 dB. UPF values of treated fabrics were high. Also, even after 20 washing cycles, the UPF values of the fabric was 50 + . As a result, the multifunctional cotton curtain fabric which is the purpose of this work was successfully developed.
