Abstract

The synthesis of immobilized β‐cyclodextrin derivatives onto polyamide‐6 fabric is presented. These novel fabrics were prepared by graft‐copolymerization of glycidyl methacrylate (GMA) onto polyamide 6 fabric, using a chemical redox system K~2~S~2~O~8~/CuSO~4~·5H~2~O, followed by reaction of β‐cyclodextrins (CD) or monochlorotriazinyl (MCT β‐CD) with the GMA epoxy group. Some biocidal guests were complexed into CD cavity including p‐hydroxy benzoic acid, AgNO~3~–ethanolamine mixture, iodine, N,N‐diethyltoluamide (DETA), citronella, jasmine, and sweet basil. Characterization of the novel fabrics was done by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (IR), electron scanning microscopy (SEM), and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA). The biocidal activity of the grafted fabrics was tested against five strains of microorganisms. © 2005 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 99: 2586–2593, 2006
