“…The breaking strength and elongation of textiles practically do not change (Figure 9 and 10) [3,27]. These results are in accordance with the results obtained by other authors [82][83][84][85]. Plasma modification of textiles does not impair their mechanical properties.…”

“…LT is the linearity of the load/extension curve, which reflects the elasticity of the fabric, i.e., the higher the value, the stiffer the material will be. 16 LT value equal to 1.0 indicates that the stress-strain curve rising below a 45 is a straight line. 17 Moreover, WT is also known as tensile work, which is defined as the energy required for extending a fabric, i.e., the ability of a fabric to withstand external stress during extension.…”

“…17 Lower values indicate less resistance to shearing corresponding to a softer material having better drape. 16 On the other hand, 2HG and 2HG5 shear hysteresis are defined as the ability of a fabric to recover after applying shear stress. The fabric recovery ability after applying the shearing stress can be reflected by the shear stress value of 0.5 and 5…”

The wrinkle resistance treatment together with plasma pretreatment is especially very important to cotton fabrics because of their high wrinkling tendency. However, the processes improved the wrinkle recovery property of cotton fabrics, but, at the same time, may worsen the fabric handle, which is an important factor when designing the end‐uses of fabric because handling of fabric also a critical factor for purchasing decision. The Kawabata Evaluation System for Fabrics (KES‐F) measures the scale of “basic hand” and “total hand” values determined by the combined results of sensory tests conducted by the instrumental measurements. In the present article, the effects of plasma treatment and catalyzed 1,2,3,4‐butanetetracarboxylic acid (BTCA) treatment on the fabric yellowing are also studied. The results found that the wrinkle‐resistant treatment had a negative effect on the tensile properties, shearing properties, bending properties, and surface friction and variation, whereas the compressional properties are improved by the treatment. In addition, the plasma treatment improves the tensile properties and bending properties but not the compressional properties, shearing properties, and surface friction and variation. Besides, it is concluded that these treatments can influence not only the fabric handle but also the yellowness of fabrics. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2010

“…Modification and functionalization of textile materials through plasma treatments have a great potential in future. The mechanical and surface properties and handle of wool and cotton fabrics after different stages of treatment using the KES-FB system by were studied by [3]. The investigation revealed that remarkable changes in mechanical properties of wool and cotton took place after oxygen plasma treatment.…”

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.
