The Effect of Oxygen Plasma Treatment on Wrinkle Resistance of Cellulose Acetate Based Fabric
In this study, cellulose acetate-based fabrics were subjected to a resin-based wrinkle-resistant treatment. The fabric samples were treated with oxygen plasma for 1 and 5 minutes with a power of 100W prior the wrinkle-resistance finishing to enhance wrinkle resistance. The surface morphology and fun...

Summary: | In this study, cellulose acetate-based fabrics were subjected to a resin-based wrinkle-resistant treatment. The fabric samples were treated with oxygen plasma for 1 and 5 minutes with a power of 100W prior the wrinkle-resistance finishing to enhance wrinkle resistance. The surface morphology and functional groups of samples were analyzed with scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, respectively. The angle of wrinkle-resistance and tensile strength of samples were investigated in accordance with resin type and plasma treatment. Scanning electron microscope micrographs reveal that plasma treatment generates microscopic grooves and micro-cracks on the sample surfaces, resulting in an etching effect. Furthermore, the samples have been successfully treated with resin-based wrinkle-resistant finishing. The results of Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy show that no significant alterations in functional groups formed in the acetate fibers posterior to plasma treatment. The wrinkle-resistance angle of cellulose acetate cloth pre-treated with oxygen plasma and wrinkle-resistance resin was significantly improved, according to the results. The high wrinkle resistance result was obtained for warp direction 113.5 ± 3.5 and weft direction 102 ± 3. Furthermore, the wrinkle resistance data were investigated using MATLAB R2020b to predict one-way ANOVA with the main factor, plasma treatment, and the interaction impact was extremely significant (P |
