In this work, the bactericidal properties of TiO2 modified polyester–cotton fabrics were studied. Fabrics were modified via dip-coating in TiO2 suspensions irradiated by simulated sunlight. TiO2 coated fabrics were characterized by SEM, FTIR and XPS analysis and tested as photocatalysts for the self-disinfection of E. coli. Tests were performed thrice for each modified fabric in order to determinate...
