Hydrophilic Treatment of PET Fabric with Mone-sodium Ethylene Glycolate
Mono-sodium Ethylene Glycolate에 의한 PET직물의 친수화 가공에 관한 연구
Abstract
In order to improve the hydrophilic property of PET fabric, the fabrics were weight loss-treated in synthesized mono-sodium ethyleneglycolate(MSEG). The rates of weight loss, hygroscopicity and antistatic properties were measured. And the following observations were made; PET fabric decomposed and decreased its weight in MSEG solution. Tensile strength decreased as the rate of weight loss increased and the decrease of tensile strength was nearly similar when treated with MSEG and with NaOH for the same rate of weight loss. Hygroscopic and antistatic properties were improved during the decomposition of PET by MSEG treatment.
