Enhancement of antibacterial capability of cotton textiles coated with TiO2–SiO2/chitosan using hydrophobization

Since textiles have a porous and hydrophilic structure, they are ideal substrates for the settlement and growth of pathogenic bacteria. Therefore, fabrication of hydrophobic textiles to reduce their humidity has the potential to inhibit the growth of bacteria. On this basis, we report here an improv...
