Effects of a Poly(Sodium Acrylate) Finish on Moisture-Related Properties of Cotton-Containing Durable-Press Fabrics:

摘要: Durable-press cotton/polyester fabrics with 100%, 79%, 50%, 35%, and 0% cotton contents were modified by in situ network polymerization of sodium acrylate. The characterized for mositure-related properties. There substantial reductions both drop absorption wicking times at about 1% add-on poly(acrylic acid) little change other At 4% acid), increases moisture regain water imbibition accompanied shorter up 2 cm 3 fabric. Other textile performance properties are discussed relation to the hydrophilic characteristics fabrics.
