| dc.description.abstract | Development of water repellent fabric with fluorine free and fluorocarbon finish. Pad- dry-cure method was used for the application of finish. Mechanical and comfort properties have tested and comparative study was conducted between fluorine free finish and fluorocarbon finish. Different concentrations of fluorocarbon and fluorine free finish are applied onto the fabric. Tensile and tear strength was measured for both fluorine free and fluorocarbon finished fabric. Fluorine free finished fabrics shows less tensile and tear strength as compared to fluorocarbon finish fabric. The comfort property of fluorine free finish was also more as compared to fluorocarbon. According to environmental attributes fluorocarbon is considered as carcinogenic and toxic whereas fluorine free finish was eco-friendly in nature and not harmful to human health. | en_US |
