Hydrophobic Modification of Fiber Surface by Plasma Polymerizafon of Perfluoropropene

Perfluoropropene의 플리즈마중합에 의한 섬유의 소수성 표면개질

Perfluoropropene was plasma polymerized in the form of thin film on PET fabrics to give hydrophobic and barrier properties without affecting air permeability. Changes in surface characteristics were detected by application of ESCA, IR, SEM and contact anglemeter. The surface properties was changed markedly to be water and stain repellent although the effect was not much sensitive to the differences of chemical components of the thin films formed at different experimental conditions. The protective barrier characteristics of the thin film was also applicable to suppress the amounts of dyes extracted from fabrics in laundering.
