| Abstract: | The structure of
cotton yarns mercerized, bioscoured using acid and alkaline pectinases and
dried at different temperatures has been studied using X-ray diffraction and infrared
spectroscopy. The accessibility is investigated in terms of monolayer capacity,
moisture regain, water retention values, and diffusion coefficient of the Congo
Red dye. It is observed that the drying at 80oC does not change the
crystallinity, but type of scouring changes the cotton accessibility towards
water and dyes. The temperature of the drying and type of scouring show
significant influence on the monolayer capacity, moisture regain and water
retention values. |
