Abstract: amples of a cotton poplin fabric .at two stages of processing, viz. mercerize-scour (MS) and mercerize-acour-peroxide bleach (MBBS) having nearly the same wax contents were extracted with solvents to varying levels of comparable wax contents. These were further treated with 150g/litre DMEU. Both control and DMEU crosslinked fabrics were evaluated for various textile properties. From these evaluations it is found that with decrease in wax content, absorbency improves, but conditioned WRA, elongation at break, tear strength and flex abrasion of the controls decreases. However, on crosslinking with DMEU no decrease in these properties is observed. The overall performance profile shows that whereas resilience scores of control and  DMEU crosslinked MS and MSB are almost unaffected with decrease in wax content, the strength-abrasion scores show a decreasing trend more so in the case of controls then for DMEU crosslinked MS and MSB samples.
