Application of Sericin on Polyester Fabric
Abstract:
Sericin is a natural protein which is removed from silk in a process called degumming. In India, 250-300 tons of sericin is extracted per year and goes as waste, it has wide range of application because of its properties like antioxidant, antibacterial, UV resistant, anticoagulant and moisture retention capacity. This paper is concerned with the application of sericin on polyester fabrics using cross linking agents like di-methylol di-hydroxy ethylene urea (DMDHEU) and glutaraldehyde. The Polyester fabrics are pretreated with sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and low temperature plasma (Oxygen gas). This pretreated sericin applied polyester fabrics show the better improvement in the wicking (moistureabsorbency) and good dye uptake properties on acid dyed fabric and it will be used for medical application.
