“…flax, wool, cotton and silk) was also investigated in detail. Results showed that the plasma treatment degraded and modified the impurities on the surface of the fibres, and as a consequence, the treatment accelerated and intensified the subsequent bleaching, dyeing and printing processes [9][10][11].…”

Pectinase enzyme treatment subsequent to atmospheric air-or argon-plasma surface modification was applied in linen fabric preparation. Wettability by water drop test, wickability by thin layer wicking experiment, residual pectin content and colour of the fabrics were characterized. Results clearly proved that the efficiency of pectinase in improving linen water absorbency can be significantly enhanced by plasma pretreatment. Argon-plasma pretreatment followed by a Beisol PRO enzyme treatment reduced the wetting time considerably and resulted in a fabric surface that has been characterized by the lowest water contact angle (86.6°). All the applied treatments increased the energy of the fibre surface. The alkaline scoured, the argon-plasma treated and the argon-plasmapectinase treated samples have been characterized by the highest c total S values. Plasma treatment significantly decreased the whiteness and increased the yellowness of the raw fabrics. However, the enzyme treatment applied after the plasma treatment has overcome the colour differences.

“…All treatments were done in a parallel plate, 13.56 MHz capacitive coupled reactor designed for the study of textile behavior in plasma, with oxygen as working gas. Comparison of Morphological changes in the surfaces of untreated and plasma treated wool fabrics using scanning electron microscopy were studied by Karahan et al [7]. The physical properties of wool fabrics such as thermal properties, water vapor permeability, air permeability and friction properties were affected by atmospheric plasma treatments.…”

Indian silk industry is one of the premier industries producing silk and next to china. Today the sericulture industry is faced with many problems and silk from china is being imported to combat shortage of silk. One among the product using silk is zari yarn. The Zari yarn is a value added yarn manufactured using silk. This yarn is three components consisting of 40% of silver, 0.5 % of gold and 59.5% of silk in the core position. This yarn is manufactured using the wrap spinning technique in which the flattened silver wire is wrapped on to the silk yarn and then coated with gold. The zari yarn is mostly used in saree border. The saree woven using the zari yarn will weigh around 800-1000gms depending on the design structure. The silk saree with Zari thread work will cost around 30000-84000/-depending on the weight of zari yarn used in the silk fabric. Lot of research work has been carried out to improve the texture of silk yarn. More work has been carried out in the past to improve the aesthetic and comfort properties of silk fabric. Even though the zari yarn has been used in the silk fabric manufacturing, so far there has been no research work conducted to study the zari yarn properties and its characteristics. The effect of plasma treatment on the zari yarn also studied in terms of weight loss and improvement in adhesion properties which will help in improved performance of zari yarn. The zari yarn made up of Bombyx mori silk as core is is used to produce the fabric. The comfort properties of zari yarn are also studied by using the Kawabata Evaluation system. The low stress mechanical properties of zari fabric with and without plasma treatment have been studied.

“…These are in substantial agreement with the finding of Karahan etal. [1] An increase in thermal resistance would indicate better thermal insulation. The increase in air permeability is found to be higher in plain weave comprising 100% bamboo in comparison to twill weave.…”

“…There is a plethora of literature available on plasma treatment to fibers, yarns and fabrics, Karahan etal. [1] have reported on the effect of atmospheric pressure plasma treatments on the properties of cotton fabrics. Cotton fabrics were treated with air and argon type of plasmas and properties such as pilling, thermal resistance, water vapour permeability, thermal conductivity, air permeability and friction were investigated.…”
