Abstract
The resistance of polyester sewing thread to spontaneous microflora formed on the surface of the thread during production, storage, and developing in conditions of high humidity was investigated. The change in the breaking strength, abrasion resistance, whiteness, and the overall color difference of the thread induced by microflora is approximated by exponential equations. The kinetics of the change in the electrostatic field surface charge density of the polyester thread is approximated by a linear regression equation. The kinetic curves and their approximation examined in the article can be used to predict the properties of poly(ethylene terephthalate) thread stored or used in conditions of high humidity and exposure to spontaneous microflora.
