Title: Differential Response of Cotton Fibres to Easy-Care Finishing
Authors: Venkatesh, Gopady M.

Abstract: The improvements in crease recovery angles and the concomitant tensile losses as a result of formaldehyde cross linking aimed at imparting easy-care properties to cotton fibres widely differing in fineness, length and breaking strength and extension have been compared. The fineness, length and breaking strength in the decreasing order of importance appear to influence the response of cotton fibres to easy-care finishing. The fine, long staple cotton fibres exhibit a better balance of properties with regard to crease recovery and tensile loss than the coarse, short staple cottons. Limited observations on cottons treated with DMDHEU also lead to similar conclusions.
