The purpose of this study was to determine the pore size distributions (PSDs) of polyester woven fabrics by using liquid extraction method. Three types of PSDs-percent PSD, PSD per unit area of sample and PSD per unit weight of sample-were evaluated. Plain, twill and satin polyester fabrics with various fabric counts were used as specimens. Results showed that the interyarn PSDs reflected the fabric characteristics such as the fabric count and the weave type and the intrayarn PSDs reflected the thread characteristics such as the number of fibers, the fiber diameter, the thread diameter and the thread twist. Of three types of PSDs, the PSD per unit area of sample best reflect fabric and thread characteritics. As the fabric count decreased, rc increased and interyarn pore volume increased. The PSDs were skewed to the small pore sizes and the pore volumes decreased in the order of plain> twill> satin. As the number of fibers, the fiber diameter and the thread twist decreased, the intrayarn pore volumes were increased.

Among the various properties of textile fabrics, the moisture-related properties are important for the textile processes or the apparel comfort characteristics. Alkaline hydrolysis results in pitting on the surface of fibers and increases the amount of hydroxyl and carboxyl end groups of the PET molecules on the fiber surface. The purpose of this study is to investigate the moisture-related properties of PET fabrics treated with quaternary ammonium compound/alkaline solution. The wetting and wicking properties of the PET fabrics were measured using the following experiments: contact angle, surface free energy, work of adhesion, vertical wicking height, moisture regain, and frictional static voltage. It was concluded that by the alkaline hydrolysis process, surface hydrophilicity and reactivity were considerably improved especially at lower levels of weight loss% and that the pitting of the fiber surface resulted in at higher levels of weight loss% was disadvantageous in moisture-related properties of PET.

To study the printing behaviors of Polyester and cotton(P/C) fabrics printed with disperse and reactive dyes, the effects of alkalis on the fixation of reactive dyes and the alkali-stability of disperse dyes in various methods of fixation were examined. The anthraquinone disperse dyes which have diamino derivatives as substituents without hydroxy group, such as C.I. Disperse Violet 1(D.V.1), C.I. Disperse Violet 28(D.V.28) and C.I.Disperse Blue 60(D.B.60) showed good results of fixation without regard to the concentration of NaHCO$_3$. In case of high temperature steaming(HTS) and unsaturated steaming(US)/HTS, D.V. 1 was alkali-stable and effective for P/C printing. A good result was obtained with D.V.1 and C.I.Reactive Orange 13(R.O.13) paste of 4% $K_{2}CO_{3}$. It was found that the unfixed D.V.28 bearing chloro group can hinder the fixation of monochlorotriaxinyl reactive dyes, and D.B.60 made little stain on 100% cotton. In thermosol(Tm), the dye uptake of D.V.1 was not decreased so much, but those of D.V.28 and D.B.60 were greatly decreased.

Plasma techniques permit modification of the surface layers of the substrate while maintaining its bulk properties. The use of plasma treatment on textile fibers and fabrics is very limited, however, the limitations, plasma treatments have been used to modify surface properties of textiles. In this study, multifunctional finish was performed by corona discharge technique for surface functionalization. Electron spectroscopy for chemical analysis(ESCA) was used to determine the ratios of carbon, oxygen, nitrogen, and phosphor at a 20$\AA$ sampling depth. K/S value and limiting oxygen index(LOI) value were used to obtain information on the effect of the finished fabrics. The mechanism of the flame retardancy was analyzed by the thermogravimetry-and the residue number. In ESCA, relative N1s intensity increased in case of mixtrure. The flame retardancy of the polyester and polyester/cotton fabrics treated with JA-6034 and JA-6050 was found to be operative mainly in the condensed phase mechanism. The multifunctional finish was better effect for the post treated finish agent.

The effects of DMDHEU alone and DMDHEU/Fluorochemical(FC) combined treatment on the physical properties of 75％/25％ cotton/polyester(CP) blended fabrics were investigated. FC water repellent and DMDHEU durable press finishes were applied in combination to CP fabrics to provide good water repellency as well as great durable press(DP) performance. The physical properties of the fabrics were evaluated by wrinkle recovery angle(WRA), DP performance, contact angle, demand wettability, and water repellency. The durable press/water repellent finished(DP/WR) CP fabrics show considerably improved WRA and DP performance. The DP/WR finishes do not change the water contact angie of polyester fibers significantly, while the DP finishes increase it. Both DP and DP/WR finishes increase the contact angle of cotton fibers. The water uptake amount increases in the following order : DP/WR cotton, DP/WR CP＜DP cotton, DP CP ＜ Control CP, Control cotton. The water uptake amount increases in the following order DP/WR CP, DP/WR cotton ＜DP cotton ＜DP CP＜Control CP, Control cotton. Considerable improvements for water repellency are imparted to the CP fabrics treated with DP/WR, and the level of improvement is not significantly different from that of the DP/WR cotton fabrics. These results lead to the conclusion that DP/YVR treatments a single pad bath on CP are effective finishes for improving both DP performance and water repellency.

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) has been used as a mainstream fiber to make silklike fiber. The silky characteristics such as softness, dry touch feeling and flexibility can be obtained by weight reduction treatment. In aqueous alkali solution, the surface of PET is dissolved away and reduced in weight. The PET fiber, yarn and fabric become thinner and the gaps between fibers are wider. Its mobility is greatly improved without change of basic structures of the treated PET fibrics. The alkali treatment was conducted under the various experimental conditions such as alkali (NaOH) concentration, treatment time and temperature. As the weight loss increased, drapability improved and tensile strength remarkably reduced. When the PET fabrics lost 30% in their weight, drape coefficient lowered as much as 30oA and tensile stregth lowered as much as 50%. The weight loss over 30% brings great improvement in drapability and dyeability and significant decline in durability. By the alkali treatment, absorbency in spectrophotometer of dyed PET can be increased as much as 82% due to the increase of the surface area and formation of microvoids on the surface.

In this study, selected cotton fabrics and polyester/cotton(P/C) blended fabrics are treated with a soluble polyurethane(SPU) and then, printed by heat transfer to determine the effect of SPU treatment on dye uptake of the samples. The results obtained are as follows： 1) In heat transfer, dye-uptake gets higher in Vopotion to temperature and time. The optimum printing temperature and printing time of C.I. Disperse Orange 3 and C.I. Disperse Violet 1 are $200^\circ{C}$ and 50sec. 2) Dye-uptake gets higher according to SPU concentration ; both cotton and P/C fabrics show the highest at $100g/\ell$. 3) In color, as temperature, time and SPU concentration increase, P/C fabrics show more yellowish orange color than cotton fabrics in case of C.I. Disperse Orange 3 and P/C fabrics show more reddish violet color than cotton fabrics in case of C.I. Disperse Violet 1. 4) All fastness of cotton and P/C fabrics treated with SPU are good, but color fastness to washing and water of cotton fabrics treated with SPU are not good.

This study discussed the mechanical properties such as bending and shear of polyester fabric treated with a several weight reduction machine. With the increase in the rate of weight loss, the bending rigidity of the warp and weft of treated fabric decreased regardless of the weight reduction machine. At 6.5% weight loss, the bending rigidity of warp and weft yarn decreased to $0.035\;gfcm^2/cm$ and $0.017\;gfcm^2/cm$, respectively, and these values show 54% and 94% of their untreated warp and weft. At same rate of the weight loss, the bending rigidity of polyester fabric treated with C.D.R slightly higher than that of the tank type or liquor-flow type. On the other hand, below 6.5% weight loss, the shear rigidity of the warp and weft of the treated fabric rapidly decreased. But with the increase in the above 6.5% rate of weight loss, the decreasing tendency of the shear rigidity declined. At same rate of the weight loss, the shear rigidity of fabric treated with tank type nearly equal to the that of the liquor flow type. But at same rate of the weight loss, the shear rigidity of the fabric treated with C.D.R type higher than that of the tank or liquor-flow type.

In this research, we tested the fertile physical and the sensory properties and the handle of the domestic polyester fabrics were treated with the varying alkaline concentrations and temperatures were tested. The tests were conducted to determine the effects of the alkaline treatment on the changes of the physical and the sensory chrateristics of the domestic polyester fabrics. The results were as follows; 1. When treated with the varying alkaline concentrations from $7.5\%$ to $15\%$ at temperatures from $60^{\circ}C$ to $90^{\circ}C$, the weight decreasing phenomena were shown to as a linear equations increase in that range. 2. As the weight loss increased, the softness and the smoothness were increased but the fullness and the tightness were decreased. 3. The positive correlations were found between the sensory and the physical properties, and the fullness ana the tightness, while a negative correlation was found between softness and the smoothness. 4. The regression equations obtained by the sensory chrateristics related with the physical chracteristics were as follows ; Softness: y=84.01-0.74x Fullness : y=0.06+0.78x Smoothness: y=88.67-0.82x Tightness : y= 0.34+0.79x

We have treated polyester fabric with $CF_4,\;C_2F_6,\;SF_6\;and\;C_3F_6$ glow discharge plasmas to develop functional fabrics which preserve moisture transportation and water proofing nature. Modified properties were evaluated by water vapor permeation rate and breakthrough water pressure. The change of surface morphology was observed by SEM. Fiber interstice of the plasma treated fabric was calculated as $0.32{\mu}{\textrm}{m}$, and this value was sufficiently ideal as water repellent material. The moisture transportation of ${CF_4}-treated$ fabric was good as much as untreated fabric, and those of $C_2$F(sub)6-treated, SF(sub)6-treated fabrics were reduced by 1~3%, and that of ${C_3F_6}-treated$ fabric was reduced by 15%. The best treatment condition were 0.06 torr 120 seconds in $CF_4$, 0.05 torr 30 seconds in $SF_6$, 0.08~0.15 torr 90 seconds in $SF_6$ and 0.1 torr 45 seconds in $C_3F_6$ respectively. The grade of moisture transportation effect was $CF_4>C_2F_6>SF_6>>C_3F_6$, and water proofing effect was $C_2F_6{\approx}CF_4>C_3F_6>SF_6$. It was observed by SEM that the thin film was formed on the surface of the treated substrate by the fluorocarbon plasma treatment.
