The purpose of this paper is to determine the effect of repeated shearing stress on fabrics in washing bath, and a model device was designed for this purpose. Artificially soiled cotton fabrics soiled with carbon black and palmitic acid were washed in synthetic detergent solution by the test apparatus.
Dm (repeated shearing effect) and p (ration of Dm to DM) were obtained as follows :
Dm= DM-Dn, p=100Dm/DM = 100 (DM-Dn) /DM
where DM and Dn are detergencies under repeated shearing stress and nonrepeated-shearing respectively.
The results obtained were as follows :
1. Interpretable relation was observed between DM/shearing speed curve and Dm/shearing speed curve.
2. p values were between the range of 3070% according to the shearing speed.Dm3. It was found that repeated shearing of fabrics is an operation to increase the effective surface of the fabrics in washing.
