OBJECTIVE OF FINISHING
Impart desirable functional and aesthetical functional characteristics to textiles and garments.
PROBLEMS OF FINISHING
Heat Energy
Post-operational Drying
Energy Intensive Expensive Process
PLASMA- INTRODUCTION
PLASMA- INTRODUCTION
Considered as fourth state of matter.
Ionized Gas Mixture of excited ions, molecules, electrons, neutrons, photons and free radicals. Highly reactive species.
Collection of nearly an equal number of positive & negative charges which act collectively on the fabric surface
Complex reaction with fabric surface.
PLASMA- INTRODUCTION
Also known as discharge. Identified by Sir William Crookes- 1879. Term coined by Irving Langmuir- 1929. Initially used in micro-electronics & PCB Industries. Use for various finishing operations- 1980.
PROCESS PARAMETERS
Type of gas Discharge power Treatment time Gas pressure Supply frequency
By varying parameters we can obtain different finishes. Changes the surface properties not the bulk properties of material.
IONIZATION OF GASES
IONIZATION OF GASES
Produced by ionizing a gas mixture by applying an electromagnetic field.
Temperature and density gradients
COLLISION OF MOLECULES
About 109 collisions per second
At atmospheric pressure and room temperature.
At ionization potential
Gas conduct electricity
Ionization Potential
Energy required to remove a single electron from a molecule or atom Factors deciding ionization potential
Type of gas Pressure Flow rate The gap between electrodes
PRODUCTION SYSTEM
Objective
To generate specific reactive species from relatively inert feed gas
TYPES OF PLASMA
PLASMA
Helium Argon
Nitrogen Ammonia
Tetrafluoroethylene Hexamethyldisiloxane
Power supply
High voltage (0.4- 0.8 KV) High frequency electromagnetic field (40 KHz- 2.45 GHz)
ADVANTAGES
DISADVANTAGES
CONTROLLABLE
Produced at atmospheric pressure. Do not require vacuum. Density drops off rapidly with distance from the point of generation so requires a very small gap between electrodes (less than 1mm).
Power supply
Continuous or pulsed DC or AC voltage (15KV) Frequency: 20-40 KHz
Discharge
Fountain like spray Narrow
Residence time
Too short for commercial operations
Disadvantages
Limited application Non uniform Short lived
Power supply
Voltage- 1-20 KV Frequency- 1-100KHz
Power supply
Voltage- range of 200V Frequency
High Very high Radio frequency (2-60 MHz)
FINISHING OPERATION
Non-polymerisable(oxygen) plasma
Scouring (improved by 50%)
SYNTHETIC MATERIAL
MAIN AIM
Improve
Hydrophilicity Dye-ability Anti-static properties printability
CONCLUSION
CONCLUSION
Due to emerging trends of nano-technology & ecofriendly products, plasma technology will become popular and occupy a prominent space in the apparel & textile industry.
