Coating cotton fabrics with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) will produce a multifunctional fabric. Additional functions such as antibacterial, antifungal, UV protector, sensor, and wound dressing can be improved by adding AgNPs to the cotton fabric. The functionalization can be performed by various techniques, such as pad-drying, dip-drying, or sonochemical, where the AgNPs were produced by phytosynthesis or utilizing plant extracts as a reducing agent, and this has been reported by many researchers in the past. This review systematically extracts and critically discusses the available published information on the functionalization of cotton fabrics with phytosynthesized-AgNPs from the Scopus database. Future challenges in fabricating multifunctional cotton with AgNPs were also discussed, including obtaining stable and permanent AgNPs immobilization on cotton fabric and developing additional or new functions. © (2024) All Rights Reserved.
