Here, a one step in situ synthesis of silver nanoparticles on polyamide fabric was successfully performed using stannous chloride (SnCl2) as a reducing and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as a stabilizing agent. The treated fabrics were characterized with X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscope, and energy dispersion spectrum. The antibacterial activities of the fabrics against two diverse bacteria were examined and the fabrics color measured with reflectance spectrophotometer. The results revealed well loading and distribution of Ag NPs on the fabric surface with a crystal size of 16nm with good antibacterial properties.
