Having the ability to control the surfaces of a natural fibers offers great rewards that go far beyond pure economics as natural fibers are renewable and biodegradable resources. Metal covered textiles have attracted a lot of attention in recent years due to their special surface properties, such as UV-absorbsion, antimicrobial and anti-fungicidal. Main tasks of presented research are to impact the additional value on natural fabrics by adding them new properties with a metal nano-scale coating, evaluate coating technologies and find the most successful one. The paper describes the process of vacuum evaporation and magnetron sputtering of copper layers on cotton textile materials, analysis of the metal coated textile surface morphology by laser laboratory complex and SEM. Methods and results of experiments are discussed in the paper.
