Investigation Of The Effects Of Plasma Treatment On The Properties Of Flax Fabrics

Öz In this study, flax fabrics were applied with oxygen and nitrogen plasma treatment for different execution time. After the plasma treatment, the effects of gas type and execution time on flax fabrics were investigated in terms of shear strength, hydrophility, color differences, dimensional change and surface properties. According to the results, nitrogen plasma treatment caused to increase the shear strength of flax fabrics more than oxygen plasma treatment. Furthermore, the oxygen and nitrogen plasma treatment caused to increase of hydrophility of flax fabrics and the hydrophility of samples increased with the increment in execution time of plasma treatment. The color differences results indicated that there were not significant differences in color change of flax samples. Besides, scanning electron microscope images demonstrated that the nitrogen plasma treatment provided the optimal surface modification. According to the results, plasma treatment can be improved the physical and chemical properties of flax fabrics.
