Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the ozone treating effects on wool scales and wool mechanical property through experiments and observation. For this purpose, a detailed investigation on the role of mechanical properties surfacing topography, changes in component and membrane structure were investigated. After this, a micro explanation was given to discuss the mechanism of wool shrinkage. For the scales is the element factor for shrinking, so this study is of great significance to the work of shrinkproofing.

Abstract: The aim of this study was to investigate the ozone treating effects on wool scales and wool fabrics mechanical property through experiments and observation. For this purpose, detailed investigations on the role of mechanical properties surfacing topography, changes in component and membrane structure were investigated. Then, a micro explanation was given to discuss the mechanism of wool shrinkage. Because scales are the necessary factor for shrinking, this study is of great significance to the work of shrinkproofing.

Abstract: In this paper, a shrinkproofing treatment of wool fabrics was carried out by excilamp combined with enzyme. Shrinkproofing properties of the treated fabrics were evaluated by measuring the values of directional friction effect (DFE), felting shrinkage and weight loss. The results showed that felting shrinkage of the treated wool fabrics could achieve the machine washability standard (ISO 6330 and IWS TM 31) with low fiber damage. Surface morphology and chemical composition of the treated fabrics were observed and analyzed by SEM and FTIR-ATR. This treatment was compared with low-temperature oxidation combined with enzyme method (ARS Process).
