The application concerns a Binder (comprising sulfamic acid, ammonium sulfamate and ammonium sulfate) and process of production of fabrics containing cyclodextrins fixed to the binder. The technology allows fixing a binder to natural, synthetic or artificial fibers, and, by means of a thermal processes, to fix cyclodextrins to the same binder, giving rise to fabrics suitable to incorporate active principles and to release them along with time. Peculiar characteristics of the binder are its abilities to interact with several types of fabric, independently of their composition, and with several types of cyclodextrin. Other peculiarities of embodiments are: the ability to produce functionalized fabrics, adapted to be weighted with desired molecules and release them gradually along time, with a process that does not alter the original characteristics of the fabric; the possibility of repeating several times the weighting of such molecules, so as to be able to define such fabrics as “reloadable” or “rechargeable.”
A binder composition for binding cyclodextrins to fabrics, wherein the composition is a liquid mixture and comprises sulfamic acid with a weight percentage comprised between 0.8 and 1.2 over said liquid mixture, ammonium sulphamate with weight percentage comprised between 1.2 and 1.6 over said liquid mixture, and ammonium sulfate with weight percentage comprised between 2.8 and 3.2 over said liquid mixture.
A process for the production of a fabric suitable to absorb and release an active principle, the process comprising:
A fabric suitable to absorb and release an active principle, the fabric prepared by a process comprising:
