Study of PVA on Polyester Desizing with Atmospheric Pressure Dielectric Barrier Discharge Plasma

Abstract:

The effect of atmospheric pressure dielectric barrier discharge plasma treatment on desizing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) on polyester fabric was discussed as compared desizing with alkali through a combination of desizing rate, field scanning electron microscopy and strength test. The dyeing properties of polyester fabrics treated with atmospheric plasma have also been studied. The results show that plasma treatment can improve desizing rate, surface color depth and dye-uptake for polyester fabric.
