2.2.6. Wrinkle Resistance Textiles

Cotton fabric is extremely vulnerable to developing creases at the time of usage. In traditional techniques, resin-based finishings are commonly utilized for imparting the wrinkle resistance feature to textile fabrics. The utilization of nanoparticles such as silicon dioxide and titanium dioxide have the ability to overcome certain restrictions to traditional crease resistant finish (Haque et al., 2019, [144]), (Tripathi et al., 2019, [145]). The study by (Hezavehi et al., 2015, [146]) evaluated the wrinkle behavior as well as wrinkle resistance ability of cotton fabrics dyed using Direct Blue 2B in the absence and presence of titanium dioxide nanoparticles. The test results confirmed that the wrinkle-resistance property of cross-linked fabrics was enhanced subsequent to direct dyeing. (U ˘gur et al., 2017 [147]) investigated the advanced flame retardant, wrinkle resistant, and durable finishing of linen by utilizing 1,2,3,4-Butanetetracarboxylic acid, nano-polyurethane for crosslinking process, and aluminum oxide nanoparticles for catalyst in the padding procedure. It was found that the flax fabrics applied with the aluminum oxide nanoparticles showed improved flame retardant and wrinkle resistance properties.
