Comparison of the effects of nano and conventional crease recovery treatment process parameters

To maintain fabric quality and comfort is coming into prominence every single day. It?s possible to give fabrics some features by after-treatment processes. Due to these circumstances, textile finishing processes gain importance, especially easy care property can be desired by consumers. Growing technology causes innovations in textile finishing as well.Nanotechnology can take part in textile industry both production of fibers and textile finishing chemicals. By improving nanotechnology in textile finishing, chemicals with different particle sizes are produced and used for commercial reasons.In this study, chemicals with different particle size were applied via pad and newly developed foam application methods to 100% woven cotton fabric samples to make them crease resistant. After applications, drying and curing operations, some mechanical tests; abrasion resistance, crease recovery angle, tensile strength, tear strength and color difference by spectrophotometer were handled. By evaluating results of these mentioned tests, multi-axial graphics were drawn by MATLAB and the areas were calculated. These calculated areas lead us to find the best recipe.
