Abstract

In this study, atmospheric air pressure plasma is treated with plain linen fabric. The important part of doing this surface modification is to study the comfort properties of the effect made by plasma on plain linen fabric. More attention was given to evaluating the air permeability, water vapour permeability, and wickability of the surface modified fabric. The results show that the plasma treated fabric outperforms the untreated fabrics in terms of air permeability and wickability in the warp and weft directions with a 5 minute interval time. But in plasma treated fabric, water vapour characteristics reveal the better characteristics compared to the untreated. Thus, this research work helps in understanding the comfort properties of surface modified linen fabric
