Effect of Modified Yarn Path Ring Spinning on Thermal Comfort Properties of Cotton Fabrics after Plasma Treatment

ABSTRACT

The influence of air, oxygen and argon plasma treatment on the thermal comfort behavior of cotton woven fabric which is spun from modified yarn path in ring spinning has been investigated in this study. The cotton fabric samples were undergone different plasma treatment namely air, argon and oxygen. The fabric air permeability has tend to be decreased with the plasma treatment and the oxygen plasma-treated fabric has least air permeability. The untreated fabric shows higher air permeability followed by left diagonal yarn path, straight path and right diagonal yarn path. It was also observed thermal resistance and water vapor permeability of the fabric has increased with the plasma treatment and the oxygen plasma-treated fabric has higher thermal resistance and water vapor permeability. The untreated fabric shows lower thermal resistance and water vapor permeability followed by left diagonal yarn path, straight path and right diagonal yarn path.

摘要

本文研究了空气、氩和氧等离子体对环锭纺纱改性纱道纺棉机织物热舒适性的影响.对织物样品进行空气、氩、氧等等离子体处理.结果表明，等离子体处理后织物的透气性降低，氧等离子体处理后织物的透气性最低.未经处理的织物透气性较高，其次是左斜纱径、直纱径和右斜纱径.实验还发现，随着等离子体处理的进行，织物的热阻和水蒸气渗透性增加，氧等离子体处理织物的热阻和水蒸气渗透性提高.未经处理的织物表现出较低的热阻和水蒸气渗透性，其次是左斜纱线路径、直纱线路径和右斜纱线路径.
