Abstract
The past couple of years, buildings with low energy consumption and a higher thermal comfort have become more and more common but this has a negative impact on Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) [1,2]. The majority of pollutants present in the indoor air are Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) that originate from sources insidethese buildings. The ultimate aim of this study is to functionalize a textile substrate with a hybrid photo catalytic material based on titanium dioxide (TiO2) and cellulose nano crystals (CNC) in order to photo degrade VOCs under visible light.
