U. Denter et al., MODIFICATION OF FIBER SURFACES BY PERMANENT FIXATION OF SUPRAMOLECULAR COMPONENTS .1. FUNDAMENTALS, Die Angewandte makromolekulare Chemie, 248, 1997, pp. 153-163
A new conception for modification of textile surfaces by permanent fix
ation of supramolecular components is explained. The principle of sele
ctive complexation is illustrated. Cyclodextrins, aza crown ethers, ca
lixarenes, cyclotriveratrylenes and fullerenes are mainly suggested as
suitable ligands for that procedure. The chemical structure and the c
omplexation behaviour of the substances are described. Some surface pr
operties which may be obtained with the ligands are especially emphasi
zed.
