Nanofinishing of wool and blended fabrics with TiO 2 for UV protection and photoyellowing reduction

The effectiveness of nanocrystalline titanium dioxide (TiO 2 ) (P-25) in enhancing protection against ultraviolet rays and reducing photoinduced yellowing was evaluated through its application to wool fabrics and wool blends (such as wool–polyester and wool–polyester–spandex). Th...
