A study on characterization of polymer-coated wool fabrics using plasma polymerization

Many great investigations and new techniques focused on the study of textile to improve textile surface properties such as wetting, antistatic, electrical conduction, penetration, and so on^1,2. The static charge is a critical factor and an important limitation for many applications such as garments in direct contact with human skin^3,4. Both low-pressure and atmospheric plasma systems can be used for novel antistatic acquisition; processing fibers, yarns, fabric. Wool is good substrate for plasma modification due to outermost part of fiber that is consisted of lipid layers and ionizable functional groups^5,6.
