The main result and characterizing aspect of the research consists of the effectiveness of novel ZnO-linen fibrous composites synthesized by means of hydrothermal deposition of zinc oxide onto linen fibers, with the assistance of two surfactants. This has a direct implication on the relationship between the morphological, structural and chemical attributes and water vapor sorption-desorption behavior. Methodology consists of the hydrothermal synthesis of zinc oxide onto linen fibrous substrates previously grafted with MCT-β-CD (MonoChloroTriazinyl–β-CycloDextrin) via a hydrothermal process. The morphological, structural and chemical properties of the samples were examined, in terms of a co-assisted investigation system: SEM images for the morphology, EDX analysis for surface composition, FTIR spectroscopy and X-ray diffractometry for structural samples features. Dynamic vapor sorption (DVS) analysis will complete this study. According to the results provided by the characterization technique, the uniformity of the fabric coated with ZnO powder hydrothermally synthesized with assistance of CTAB (Cetyl TrimethylAmmonium Bromide) is better than that of ZnO powder hydrothermally synthesized in the presence of Pluronic P123 and possesses good washing fastness. X-ray diffraction results have indicated that the composites exhibited a more ordered structure and higher water vapor sorption-desorption capacity (obtained by DVS analysis) compared with those of the reference fibrous linen supports.
