Abstract:To inhibit bacterial corrosion on leather artifacts and extend their storage lifespan, C-TiO2 nfs were synthesized from nano-TiO2, KH560, and M2070; I-TiO2 nfs were prepared using nano-TiO2, DC5700, and NPES. These TiO2 nfs were both applied to aging leather using a cyclic brushing method.The structural composition, microscopic morphology, and fluidity of the TiO2 nfs were characterized using FTIR, TEM, and rheometer. The aging leather before and after TiO2 nfs treated were analyzed using digital camera, spectrophotometer, SEM, etc. to evaluate changes in color and structure. Additionally, the mechanical properties, UV resistance, antibacterial performance, and long-term stability of the treated leather were tested using servo material multifunctional high/low-temperature control testing machine, UV-visible-near-infrared spectrophotometer , etc. .The results showed that C-TiO2 nfs and I-TiO2 nfs are both white liquids with good fluidity at room temperature, and C-TiO2 nfs exhibiting better fluidity. After treated by TiO2 nfs, the color and structure of the aging leather remained unchanged, and its mechanical properties, UV resistance, and antibacterial performance improved significantly, demonstrating long-term stability. C-TiO2 nfs treated aging leather achieved inhibition rates of 61.3% and 69.9% against E. coli and S. aureus, respectively. I-TiO2 nfs treated leather exhibited superior softness, mechanical properties, and antibacterial performance, with softness, tensile strength, and elongation at break reaching 3.32 mm, 17.32 MPa, and 81.71%, respectively. The inhibition rates against E. coli and S. aureus achieved 97.0% and 98.2%, respectively.
