“…Therefore, these treatments may not provide long-term durability and may be removed by abrasion during their use. Dodd and Carr used UV radiation for the curing of the polymeric coating to make wool fabric shrink-resist, which severely affected the handle properties of the fabric [80].…”

“…UV curing technology is used in many industrial applications for coating of paper, plastic, metals, wood and glass surfaces because of low energy consumption, short start‐up period, fast and reliable curing, low environmental pollution, curing at room temperature, and space saving 27. In the field of textile finishing processes the radiation curing was proposed for pigment printing,28, 29 to realize coatings for shrink‐resist wool,30, 31 and various functional finishes as flame retardant,32 durable press33 and water‐repellency 34. Only one limitation could arise from the fact that UV curing should be applied to fabrics while thermal grafting of silk can be applied also to yarns in common dyeing equipment.…”

Silk grafting with methacrylic and epoxy monomers was studied with the aim to obtain high graft yields. With both monomer types optimum operating conditions of thermal grafting in water bath were established. In particular, three epoxy monomers were tested at various concentrations, at different temperatures and reaction times, with sodium chloride or sodium thiosulphate as catalysts. Optimum yields (76-82%) were found with Araldite DY-T for 2 h at 708C with 3M sodium chloride. The results were compared with those obtained with the same monomers by UV curing, radical with methacrylates and cationic with the epoxy resin. The UV curing efficiency was tested by gel content determinations. Thermal and UV cured fibers were then subjected to measurements of fibroin solubility in ethanolcalcium chloride-water mixture to evaluate the crosslinking degree. Except in the case of methacrylamide, radical UV curing yielded fibers more crosslinked than thermal treatment, or crosslinked to the same extent, whereas cationic UV curing showed lower crosslinking effects. The grafted fibers were characterized through DSC measurements and FTIR-ATR spectrometry. Finally, surface morphology of UV-cured samples was investigated through SEM analyses which showed that the better products could be obtained with UV curing at low add-on, mainly with dimethacrylates and Araldite DY-T, whereas the thermal grafting seems to be preferable for high add-on.

“…In fact, in textile finishing processes, the conventional thermal curing technique is still used, regardless of energy consumption and cost. Among the textile finishing processes by radiation curing, pigment printing of fabrics has received much attention,4, 5 but coatings for shrink‐resistant wool,6, 7 flame‐retardant fabrics,8 and durable press finishes9 have also been investigated. Moreover, water‐repellent fabrics have been obtained by the γ‐radiation grafting of poly(vinyl methyl siloxane) or methyl hydrogen silicone10 on hydrophilic substrates.…”

Cotton fabrics were water-repellent-finished by radical ultraviolet curing of silicone and urethane acrylates with different formulations. The fabrics were impregnated with undiluted resins and with toluene solutions or water emulsions. Moreover, cationic ultraviolet-curable systems were also investigated, such as an epoxy-functional polysiloxane and mixtures of an epoxy resin with hydroxyl-containing silicone additives. The gel content and polymerization yield were considered for the ultravioletcuring process evaluation. Water-resistance properties were determined in terms of the contact angle, wettability, moisture adsorption, and water vapor permeability measurements, whereas the morphology and surface composition of treated fabrics were examined with scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray analysis.
