A method of making an antimicrobial textile comprising TiO.sub.2 nanoparticles is described. The TiO.sub.2 nanoparticles are immobilized by first treating a textile with a base, and then contacting with TiO.sub.2 nanoparticles in a solution of an alcohol and acid. The textile may be subsequently irradiated with UV light prior to use. The antimicrobial textile shows high effectiveness against the growth and proliferation of microorganisms transmitted within indoor environments.

A method for providing a bio-active layer on a surface, includes the steps of: a) ionizing a plasma gas at low temperature of 150° C. or lower, and at about atmospheric pressure, thereby creating a plasma; b) introducing a precursor into the plasma; c) exposing the surface to the plasma comprising the precursor, thereby forming a coating onto the surface. The plasma gas is ionized by means of electrodes, wherein the plasma gas is ionized by the electrodes with a power of at most 10 Watt per cm.sup.2 of the electrode surface. The bio-active layer is an antibiofouling layer, an antibacterial layer, an antiviral layer and/or a microbial collecting layer, such that the plasma gas includes inert gas for at least 99% by volume. The inert gas is a non-noble gas.

A graphene silicone sticky sheet and compound structure using the same is provided. The graphene silicone with PU function group is used as substrate which is further combined with an adhering layer so as to form as a graphene silicone sticky sheet. Therefore, it is adhered to various application objects, especially clothes or wearing objects, such as an eye mask. Further, the graphene silicone can be combined with conductive wires which extend outwards and thus it can be made as electrode adhesive sheet or electric heating sheet.
