The Wearability of Soybean Protein/Poly (Ethylene Terephthalate) Composite Fabric

Abstract

In this paper,the soybean protein / poly (ethylene terephthalate)PET composite fabric was obtained and its wearability was mainly studied. It is found that the moisture regain, water absorption, air permeability and moisture permeability of soybean protein PET composite fabric were improved greatly. In addition, the whiteness and elastic wrinkle recovery angle kept well, and the stiffness increased incredibly. Therefore, soybean protein being grafted on PET fabric surface not only improved the biocompatibility, but also the wearability.
