  In this work cotton and polyester fabric were coated with silica nano
particles using pad-dry-cure method. The prepared composite fabrics were
analyzed in terms of change in their thermal degradation properties. The
oxidative degradation characteristic of control and treated samples were
studied using Thermo Gravimetric technique. The mass loss profile of untreated
fabric compared with treated fabric. The results indicate that the thermal
degradation rate was lower in treated sample as compare to control fabrics.
