Abstract
The functionality such as deodorant, antibacterial, ultraviolet shielding of titanium dioxide self-actuated photocatalyst $Weltouch^{TM}$ treated polyester fiber was characterized in conditions without light. The deodorizing capacity was maintained more than 97% reduction irrespective of before washing and after 20 times repeated washing, and antimicrobial capacity was also retained more than 99.9% reduction. Titanium dioxide self-actuated photocatalyst was still maintained to the surface of polyester fiber without separation even after 20 times repeated washing. According to washing durability of polyester fiber, the reduction effect for ammonia was still retained even after 20 times repeated washing as much as before washing. The ultraviolet shielding capacity was still maintained at least 83% irrespective of before washing and 20 times repeated washing.
