“…Commonly, the fabric was finished by PDC process in finishing solution containing finishing agent and catalyst [8]. During this process, the whole fabric was steeped all together in finishing solution to treat, and every cotton fiber absorbed evenly the chemicals, bringing on the same finishing effect of the two faces of the fabric.…”

Durable press (DP) finishing is the common process to impart anti-creasing properties to cotton fabrics. Conventionally, the whole fabric was treated by pad-dry-cure (PDC) process in one treating bath. However, this process led to the serious loss of the cotton fabrics in mechanical properties. In this work, the cotton yarns were treated with DP finishing solution. And subsequently, they were dried and cured in a certain temperature. The wrinkle recovery angle (WRA) of yarns was measured. The relationship between the treating process and WRA was studied. The affecting parameters on WRA were acquired by experiment. This work provides basic data for people to know and understand the role of anti-creasing yarns in the whole fabric.

“…14 Given this, the high price of BTCA restricts its industrial production. 15 Although CA is cheap, it can cause fabric yellowing. 16 The addition of poly(ethylene glycol) 17 or N-dimethylol dihydroxyethylene urea, and polyethylene softener 18 or MA/sodium hypophosphite (NaH 2 PO 2 ) 19 can enhance crease resistance but also reduce the tensile strength preservation rate.…”

The approaches for cotton shrink-resistant finishing can be categorized into chemical finishing and physical finishing. In this research, a new approach to prevent cotton fabric from shrinkage and wrinkling without resin finishing was studied to reach an easy care effect of “wash-and-wear” for related end products. It was achieved by adding a certain proportion of fine denier polyester and memory polyester fibers. Unlike the previous chemical finishing methods, this physical finishing method does not cause yellowing, formaldehyde content increase or strong damage of tensile strength. It can reduce the shrinkage rate and increases the wrinkle recovery angle (WRA) through the shape memory formed by the memory polyester fiber in the heat setting stage. Our results were of better condition with significant improvements in WRA, anti-pilling effect, shrink-proofing and strength of the fabrics. The fabrics can be widely used in bedding textiles and shirting fabrics.
