Optimization of Conductive Properties of Polyester/Viscose Fabric Treated with nanoparticles Using Central Composite Design

In this work, the specimen of the fabrics (polyester/viscose blend) was first placed under microwave radiation at different times, and then the optimum treatment of treated fabrics (8 min) was selected for physical properties and surface morphology Graphene oxide (GO) and Carbon nanotube (CNT) with different percentages were measured with using dispersing agent, washing performance and stability, and physical properties of the fabric. The image of Surface morphology s specimens was, also,photographed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). After, the electrical conductivity properties of the specimens were measured, according to AATCC 2005-76 standards, and subsequently, K/S, % R, and Lab value of specimens analyzed with using reflection spectrophotometer. In fact, the result indicate that optimum electrical resistivity, that is aim of study too, are 9% one weight of fabric (o,w.f) nanoparticles on the fabric, and finally, the electrical resistivity for the values of 7 and 5% o.w.f of CNT are approximately the same as those of 9 and 7% o.w.f of GO.
