Abstract
This study investigates the effect of washing fabrics (nylon 6.6 powernet knitted fabrics with 30% spandex) treated with chitosan on their moisture management and air permeability. The knitted fabrics were treated with three different solutions of chitosan and dimethylol dihydroxyethylene urea (DMDHEU); in addition to chitosan and DMDHEU, one solution contained the complexing agent ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) and the other contained the nonionic surfactant and penetration agent octylphenol ethoxylate. The three solutions were compared in terms of their effect on moisture management and air permeability properties. Nylon fabrics treated and washed with these solutions were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Nylon fabrics treated with chitosan and DMDHEU showed the potential to transfer liquid moisture to the lower layer and keep the layer next to the skin dry after 20 washes.
Abstract
Diese Studie untersucht den Einfluss des Waschens von Stoffen (Nylon 6,6-Powernetgewirke mit 30% Elasthan), die mit Chitosan behandelt wurden, auf ihr Feuchtigkeitsmanagement und ihre Luftdurchlässigkeit. Die Gewirke wurden mit drei verschiedenen Lösungen aus Chitosan und Dimethyloldihydroxyethylenharnstoff (DMDHEU) behandelt, wobei neben Chitosan und DMDHEU in der einen Lösung der Komplexbildner Ethylendiamintetraessigsäure (EDTA) und in der anderen Lösung das nicht-ionische Tensid und Pentrationsmittel Octylphenolethoxylat enthalten war. Die drei Lösungen wurden hinsichtlich ihres Einflusses auf das Feuchtigkeitsmanagements- und die Luftdurchlässigkeitseigenschaften verglichen. Die mit den Lösungen behandelten und gewaschenen Nylongewirke wurden mittels Fourier-Transformations-Infrarotspektroskopie und Röntgenphotoelektronenspektroskopie charakterisiert. Nylongewebe, die mit Chitosan und DMDHEU behandelt wurden, zeigten nach 20 Wäschen das Potenzial, flüssige Feuchtigkeit in die untere Schicht zu übertragen und die Schicht neben der Haut trocken zu halten.
