Studies on the Effect of Pre-Treatment on the Physical Characteristics of Cotton Knit Fabric

Abstract

Typically, contaminants and natural color are removed through scouring and bleaching. We utilize caustic soda, detergent, sequestering agent, wetting agent, and hot water for scouring. Detergent and caustic soda are the fundamental chemicals here. Sequestering agent, hydrogen peroxide, and peroxide stabilizer are used in bleaching. Hydrogen peroxide and a peroxide stabilizer are the fundamental chemicals here. In this study, we examine the physical properties of knit fabric both before and after the procedure of treatment. In order to complete this task, we collected a sample and calculated the WPI, CPI, stitch length, pilling test, and bursting strength test. And we keep an eye on how those processes alter over time. We also watch as those processes alter.
