Objective
The capability of plasma technology for effecting desirable modifications to textile materials has been recognized from many years. Compared to standard chemical wet processing of textile, the use of plasma will allow to implement finishing treatments that are inherently dry, thus saving water sources, and that can be performed without the use of dangerous compounds or the waste of chemical residuals. An open important problem is to chose the right technology fitting the ad hoc finishing process. It is well known that the plasma source affects the chemical compositions and the plasma-surface interaction. Another problem is related to the evolution of gas (out gassing) from the fabrics during on- line process at normal pressure. Another problem is the achievement of an equipment performing an on-line process. In this case a transfer of know-how from the high vacuum to the textile field has to be effectuated.
The RTD goals are:
- definition of a cold plasma process for softening, air permeability, polishing, velvet-like effect, to be implemented in textile finishing industry
- individuations of the best plasma technology suited for the chosen finishing process.
- development and validation of a prototype of fabrics finishing machine plasma technology based.
