Abstract
Natural zeolites are one of the most examined natural minerals. By means of new studies conducted onzeolites, new areas of usage are being discovered day by day. It is possible to produce modified zeolitesthat having many variable functions by using the ion exchange capability of zeolite. In this study 100%cotton fabrics was used in the trials. The natural zeolite, used in the trials, was provided from EnliMadencilik A.Ş. and originated from the Manisa-Gördes region. The manufacturing of Zn-Zeolite wasperformed. And then the Zn-Zeolite were applied to cotton fabrics. The characteristics of the cotton fabricstreated with zinc-loaded antibacterial zeolite are analyzed in this article.
