1. Introduction
A great deal of research and developmental work were and still
being carried out world-wide with aim of establishing new finishing approaches as well as fabric-forming techniques. This, indeed,
have led to great advances in the realms of medical and hygienic
textiles [1]. Large amounts of hygienic and health textiles are being
consumed in places where contact with skin of users occurs repeatedly such as in hospitals and theaters [2]. It is logical that these
textile materials must acquire multi-functional performance such
as provision of high antibacterial activity and ultraviolet (UV) protection for the sake of health considerations [3–9].
