Abstract

Abstract Plasma technology used for textile and leather materials treatment is a dry, environmental friendly, and easy to operate method by which surface modification is obtained without altering the bulk properties of the materials. Particularly, nonthermal plasmas are very appropriate due to the fact that most textiles, and especially leathers, are usually heat sensitive. The major objective of this review is to provide a critical update on the present state‐of‐art relating to plasma and its effects on different textiles and leathers. We believe that the discussed subjects are helpful and may be used as an instruction guide for the future developments in the field of plasma‐activated textiles and leathers.
