Wet processing of textiles uses large quantities of water, and electrical and thermal energy. Most of these processes involve the use of chemicals as assisting, accelerating or retarding their rates and are carried out at elevated temperatures to transfer mass from processing liquid medium across the surface of textile material in a reasonable time. So, we can use some natural materials and some physical tools to reduce the chemicals, water, energy and pollution. This tools and natural material can use also to improvement the fabrics surface via introduce new active groups on its. Improvement of the fabrics surface can increase the efficiency of bleaching, dyeing and finishing processes. Chitin, a major component of the shell of crab and shrimp is one of the most abundant natural polysaccharides with a large unexplored commercial potential. Chitosan is partially or completely N-deacetylated chitin and mainly consists of B-(1,4)linked 2amino-2-deoxyB-D-glucopyranose. In recent years, a number of investigations have been carried out to exploit the potential applicability of chitosan(1). Chitosan have many applications in the medical and textile fields. Cellulose which has been known to have good physical properties has been widely used as construction material, paper and clothes. Cellulosic fabrics can be oxidized by several oxidizing agents such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), sodium persulphate (Na2S2O8) and potassium periodate (KIO3). Oxidation of cellulosic fabric using sodium metaperiodate (NaIO4) has been extensively investigated in the literature, since it leads to selective cleavage at the C2 and C3 vicinal hydroxyl groups to yield a product with 2,3-dialdehyde units along the polymer chain(2). The latter is an important functional polymer for further derivatisation to specialized products. As a naturally deriving substances, chitosan and cellulose share several common beneficial properties such as being nontoxic and biodegradable. Structurally, chitosan is slightly different from cellulose as the monosaccharide in chitosan chain is 2-amino-2-dehydroxy-Dglucose instead of D-glucose. The presence of amino group is responsible for the complete solubility of chitosan in a diluted aqueous acidic solution as a polycationic polymer whereas cellulose is totally insoluble. This polycationic nature makes chitosan very appealing as a surface treating agent for cellulose fabrics to improve its dyeability to reactive and acid dyes. Chitosan used for surface modification of cellulose fabrics. Direct padding or
