Abstract: | The medical uses of textile fibers and fabric forms keep on growing. Today, the knits can be used in the medical field. The
aim of this present work was to prepare compressive knits, impregnated by ethylcellulose (EC) microcapsules, for the burnt
skin. Ethylcellulose microcapsules containing jojoba oil were prepared via the phase separation method. Jojoba oil was chosen
because it plays an essential role in skin hydration and avoids the sebum accumulation. Ethylcellulose microcapsules obtained
were grafted on two different compressive knit surfaces by impregnation, using the Acrylic Resin (AR) as binder. The prepared
microcapsules were analyzed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The stability of the microcapsules, the efficiency of the
microencapsulation method and the jojoba oil content determination were also investigated. This method of application improved
the fabric surface and permitted in maximum the preserving of initial characteristics of knit, such as touch, flexibility
and lightness. |
