The effect of helium plasma treatment has been investigated on crease recovery finish of linen fabric using carboxylic acid as crosslinker. After the plasma treatment, 5% increase in wet pickup is observed compared to the control fabric. This plasma treated sample is crosslinked with butyl tetracarboxylic acid (BTCA). The significant increase in crease recovery angle is found as compared to the untreated crosslinked fabric. However, significant reduction in tearing is also observed in both the cases. Tearing strength could be improved to acceptable range by adding silicone softener during cross-linking process. The untreated and plasma-treated fabrics are analyzed by scanning electron microscope and ATR-FTIR spectroscopy to investigate the changes in surface morphology and surface functional groups.

等离子体处理对亚麻含羧酸折皱收光效果的影响

研究了氦等离子体处理对使用羧酸作为交联剂的亚麻织物的折皱回复整理的影响。等离子处理后，与对照织物相比，观察到湿吸收增加了5％。该经等离子体处理的样品与丁基四羧酸（BTCA）交联。与未处理的交联织物相比，发现折皱回复角显着增加。然而，在两种情况下也都观察到撕裂的明显减少。通过在交联过程中添加有机硅柔软剂，可以将撕裂强度提高到可接受的范围。通过扫描电子显微镜和ATR-FTIR光谱分析未经处理和经等离子体处理的织物，以研究表面形态和表面官能团的变化。
