Abstract: In order to optimize the application of graphene oxide in antistatic finishing of cotton fabric, the concentration of graphite oxide, the temperature of dipping and reducing, the immersion and reducing time were respectively tested with hydrazine hydrate, boron sodium hydride, insurance powder and glucose as reductant. The results showed that cotton fabric finished with graphene oxide achieved the strongest antistatic performance under the condition of insurance powder as reductant and at a concentration of 3 g/L, graphene oxide concentration 4.5 g/L, dipping at 55 ℃ for 70 minutes and then reducing at 40 ℃ for 90 minutes.

Key words: graphene oxide; antistatic finishing; cotton fabric; reductant
