Nanotechnology has proven its importance in almost all areas, and textile industry is not an expection.The aim of the research was to explore the effect of methyl red dye, bulk/nano TiO2 and methyl red dye with bulk/nano TiO2 on antistatic and antiflammable property of commercially available textile samples. Nano TiO2 was synthesized by polyol method and characterized by X-Ray diffraction (XRD) and Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM). From our results, it's clear that materials coated by methyl red with nano TiO2 prove to have better antistatic and antiflammable property.
