A reactive triazine derivative, 2,4-dichloro-6-hydroxy-1,3,5-triazine (DCHT), was prepared through the controlled hydrolysis of cyanuric chloride in water solution. The reaction was characterized with 13 C NMR study. The reaction solutions could be directly used to treat cellulose fibers. A pad-dry-cure method was employed to immobilize the triazine derivative onto cotton. The covalently bound triazine moieties on cotton could be transformed into N-halamine structures after a chlorine bleaching treatment. The biocidal efficacies of the treated samples with different chlorine loadings were further examined. The storage and release testing showed that the antimicrobial function of the N-halamine modified cotton fabrics was durable and renewable. These advantages make the triazine N-halamine modified cotton as an attractive candidate in a broad range of application fields.
