Abstract

Textile materials have inherent characteristics that make them very precious, supple, lightweight, strong, large surface to volume ratio, good touch, gentleness, etc. Due to this, they are outstanding for imparting additional functionalities like hydrophobic or antibacterial. Conventional wet methods for applying such finishes require the use of large amounts of chemicals, soft water and energy in form of manpower and electrical energy. Plasma is a dry processing method and provides a solution to reduce the use of all mentioned property. In this overview, a discussion on how plasma can attain on textile materials and what the current state of addition in textile processing has presented.
