Antibacterial finishing of nylon 66 fabrics was carried out with sericite and medilite which are a cheap price antibacterial agents and had excellent antibacterial effects. The particle size of sericite and medilite was 15 ${\mu}m$ and 30 ${\mu}m$. The antibacterial and deodorant ratio, tensile and tear strength, peel strength were examined to investigate the change of physical properties and antibacterial effect. The results are as follows. 1. Peel strength is increased with increasing adhesive content, and satisfied standard value of peel strength when adhesive content is 20 $g/m^2$. Also peel strength was decreased with increasing antibacterial agent content and particle size in the adhesives. 2. Tensile and tear strength were not related with antibacterial agent content in the adhesives. 3. Laundering nylon 66 fabric treated with antibacterial agent, the optimum content satisfying Korean Standard(KS) is 8%. The antibacterial and deodorant ratio were not affected by several types of adhesives.

In this study, we used a sericite which is a cheap price antibacterial agent and had excellent results. The particle size of sericite was fixed to $15{\mu}m$. The effect of the peel strength is not affected by several types of adhesives. Peel strength is increased with increasing adhesive content, and satisfied standard value of peel strength when adhesive content is $20g/m^2$. Laundering cotton fabric treated with antibacterial agent, the optimum content satisfying Korean Standard (KS) is 8%. Continuous processing conditions for antibacterial treatment on the footwear cotton fabrics are follows : melting temperature $120^{\circ}C$, cooling time 20 s, pressing temperature $130^{\circ}C$, pressing time 30 s.

The purpose of this study is to develop how to extract essential oil from heartwood of chamaecyparis obtusa and commercialize eco-friendly products using essential oil. Manufacturing process consisted of 8 steps: pulverization, input, pretreatment, extraction(steam distillation), steam emission, cooling, separation, aging. Through the method developed in this study, chamaecyparis obtusa oil with excellent quality in antibacterial effect can be extracted with high productivity. Also, chamaecyparis obtusa spray using this oil had good antibacterial and deodorant effects, and got no irritation results in the clinical test. To commercialize spray, we built a commercial website and performed consumer survey on the site. The survey results showed that respondents had positive attitude toward the products and their messages in the site. When the production standardization through precise quality control and the optimization of composition ratio are accomplished, this study will contribute to commercialize various types of cosmetics and quasi-drugs.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the dyeability of silk fabrics with sweet potato stem leaf extract. To obtain the optimal dyeing conditions it was examined at various dyeing conditions(temperature, pH, time and bath ratio). The dyeability and the depths of shade which were evaluated in terms of K/S and CIELAB color difference values of the dyed and mordanted fabrics were also investigated. After dyeing, various color fastness(wash fastness, dry cleaning fastness, light fastness, rub fastness, and perspiration fastness) was measured and reviewed for UV protective, deodorant and antimicrobial functionality. The optimun output, as a result, was shown at 100% of dye concentration, $90^{\circ}C$ of dyeing temperature and 80 minutes of dyeing time while in terms of dye uptake depending on the kind of mordants and mordanting, it was found that among four mordants of $Alk(SO_4)_2$, $CuSO_4$, $SnCl_2$, and $FeSO_4$, post-mordanting with $SnCl_2$ showed the best results. Color fastness to dry cleaning, washing and rubbing was found strong at grade 4-5 and the grade to perspiration was as good as 3 while to light fastness was good at 4 as well. In aspects of functional properties, it showed excellent results of 98.3% UV protection rate and 88% deodorization rate. Antibacterial activity was 99.9% against staphylococcus aureus and 73.3% against klebisella pneumoniae. In conclusion, we validated that the dyestuffs from the disused sweet potato stem leaf extract would be useful as a natural dye material using the optimized conditions and dyeability for silk dyeing.
