Abstract
It was found that dimentional stability and washability by U-F resin finish for spun rayon fabrics were much improved when soluble starch was added to the same bath. In the present investigation, less shrinkage than 2% was obtained after 3 times soaping at 50°C for 30min for the spun rayon muslin treated with the bath containing 10% of dimethylolurea and 4% of soluble starch in the state of 12% stretching to the original length.
Furthermore, effects of the treatments used above on crease-resistance, stiffness, tearing strength and abrasion resistance are discussed.
