Anti Fungi Fiber Felt Coating by Pulsed Electrospinning

In Textiles used in human life can be a site for growth of many microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, yeasts and algae, due to the presence of fat and dust spots on the fiber surface, which provides comfortable environment for the rapid growth of microorganisms and exacerbates. So, controlling the microbial and fungal population on textiles won’t be easy. In this research, preferred surface is coated by polystyrene fiber felt in the precense of copper nanoparticles. Pulsed electro spinning method for this purpose is developed in addition fabricated fiber felt treated by copper nanoparticles. Finally growth of penicillium fungi on the fabricated medium is tested and reduction of growth mechanism is observed.
