Al 9 Tangail Textile Engineering College, Kalihati, Tangail, Bangladesh > Review Paper 2025 1 25 2025 05 26 Nanotechnology has significantly transformed the textile sector, offering innovative solutions in both anticipated and novel ways. This review discusses the preparation of nanofibers using various methods, the types of nanofibers, and their wide-ranging applications in textiles. Among the preparation methods, electrospinning is the most widely used, alongside others such as melt-blowing, and phase separation. Nanofibers are categorized into four sources: polysaccharide-based, synthetic-based, carbon-based, and protein-based. The extensive application of nanotechnology in the textile industry is remarkable, encompassing areas such as water repellence, antistatic properties, wrinkle resistance, strength enhancement, UV protection, computing, odor control, optical displays, soil and stain repellence, anti-creasing, antibacterial properties, self-cleaning, thermal regulation, comfort, electronic textiles, medical dressings, home furnishings, food packaging, and cosmetics.
