| Abstract: | Chitosan has been used in combination with citric acid and silicon softener to impart antimicrobial and fragrance finish with two different application techniques. It is observed that the finish provides better functionality to the fabric as it shows good performance and improvement in physical properties. The finish shows good fastness to washing as well as perspiration. The use of carboxylic acid also improves the affinity of chitosan for cellulose |
