Investigation of the effect of continuous finishing on the mechanical properties and the handle of wool fabrics

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

The effect of scouring, bleaching and dyeing on the low stress mechanical and surface properties of wool woven fabrics was studied. Fabric properties were measured by the KES-FB system. In general, mechanical properties of the treated fabrics are greatly affected by scouring, moderately by dyeing and least by bleaching.
