T. Wakida et al., THE EFFECT OF WASHING AND HEAT-TREATMENT ON THE SURFACE CHARACTERISTICS OF FLUOROCARBON RESIN-TREATED POLYESTER, Journal of the Society of Dyers and Colourists, 109(9), 1993, pp. 292-296
Polyester fabrics and films treated with two fluorocarbon resins were
washed and heat treated. Water repellency, surface tension and ESCA me
asurements were carried out. Changes in the water repellency of the re
sin-treated polyester fabric caused by washing and heat treatment are
related to modification of the chemical composition of the polyester s
urface.
