Abstract:
This independent research project was developed to develop a spray production from bleached pulp, a natural fiber dissolved with 70% sulfuric acid at low temperatures. To form a solution of amorphous cellulose and fixate with zinc chloride with amorphous cellulose. Resulting in amorphous cellulose solution with zinc hydroxide fixation. To be sprayed onto the fabric to create adherence to the fabric fibers, four popular examples are used to make wearing masks to prevent the spread of COVID-19. And after spray coating the fabric surface and then pass it through the temperature to evaporate the water. The zinc oxide adheres to the fibers of the fabric, effective in eliminating viruses and bacteria that will bind on the fabric surface. This reduces the risk of viral exposure and reduces the impact of bacteria on the wearer's cloth masks. And from the survey of factors affecting the adoption of 300 units of zinc hydroxide-fixed amorphous cellulose spray innovation, it was found that the factors affecting the adoption of the innovation the most were: To establish security and be effective in preventing the COVID-19 virus. In addition, the second factor was found in portability, ease of maintenance. And facilitating the ease of breathing. More than 88.7 percent of the population surveyed were interested in the product. And 2.7 percent of those who wish to request additional information about the product
