Abstract
► We compare the effect of two different ambient air plasma treatments on surface properties of polypropylene nonwoven textile. ► The plasma modified polypropylene has highly improved sorption properties. ► The antimicrobial activity of polypropylene textile loaded with silver ions was evaluated. ► The polypropylene loaded with silver ions exhibits antimicrobial activity against tested pathogens. ► Escherichia coli is the most sensitive to the Ag loaded polypropylene.
