Abstract

Cellulosic fabrics are known for comfortability, absorption, softness, and sustainability, which give them an advantage over synthetic fibres. But these fabrics are easily wetted by water due to hydroxyl groups in cellulose molecules. This feature is undesirable in rainwear, self-cleaning coatings, and bandages that require water repellence. The purpose of this study is to develop the water-repell...
