TI  - Integrating Nano-Cu(2)O@ZrP into In Situ Polymerized Polyethylene Terephthalate 
      (PET) Fibers with Enhanced Mechanical Properties and Antibacterial Activities.

AB  - The approach of in situ polymerization modification has proven to be an effective 
      route for introducing functions for polyester materials. In this work, Cu(2)O@ZrP 
      nanosheets with excellent dispersity and high antibacterial activity were 
      integrated into in situ polymerized polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fibers, 
      revealing an enhanced mechanical performance in comparison with the PET fibers 
      fabricated directly via a traditional melt blending method. Additionally, such an 
      in situ polymerized PET/Cu(2)O@ZrP fibers displayed highly enhanced mechanical 
      properties; and great antibacterial activities against multi-types of bacterium, 
      including S. aureus, E. coli and C. albicans. For the as-obtained two types of 
      PET/Cu(2)O@ZrP fibers, we have detailed their molecular weight (detailed molecular 
      weight) and dispersibility of nano-Cu(2)O@ZrP and fibers crystallinity was 
      investigated by Gel chromatography (GPC), Scanning electron microscope (SEM), and 
      X-ray diffractometer (XRD), respectively. The results showed that the aggregation 
      of the nano-Cu(2)O@ZrP in the resultant PET matrix could be effectively prevented 
      during its in situ polymerization process, hence we attribute its highly enhanced 
      mechanical properties to its superior dispersion of nano-Cu(2)O@ZrP.
