Abstract
Modification of cotton fabrics by using thiocabonate redox system with peroxydiphosphate (PP), ferouse ammonium sulphate(FAS) and methacrylic acid (MAA) under various conditions tell the optimum condition. The efficiency of the cross linking reaction is monitored via evaluation mechanical tests on tensile properties (i.e. tensile strength (T.S.) and elongation at break (EAB), wrinkle crease recovery angle (CRA), abrasion resistance and finally, created air and water permeability. The results indicate increases in tensile properties, CRA and abrasion resistance with decrease in both air and water permeability. They are compared with the original fabric.
