Using cyclodextrins in the textile industry

today’s cyclodextrin:
I brought some applications from the textile industry. Interestingly, there are no real successful commercial examples (that I know of, at least) using CDs in the textile industry. Yet there are so many inventions in the field, I am sure, this is just a matter of time. These two applications are both interesting, on is and ultraviolet-resistant application, the other is a flame-retardant material.

Organophosphate-Cyclodextrin Inclusion Complex for Flame Retardancy in Doped Cellulose Acetate Butyrate Melt-Spun Fibers

Today’s cyclodextrin:
Organophosphates are widely used flame retardants (FR) in everyday applications, and their leaching over time is a gaining concern. In this research, 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide was chosen as a representative organophosphate FR to examine inclusion complex formation with γ-CD to enhance char formation as well as prevent the unnecessary release of toxic FR chemicals.
