Abstract
Adsorption and desorption studies were done of polyhexamethylene biguanide (PHMB) onto two different types of textile fiber surfaces. Based on these studies and mathematical modelling, the rate constants were calculated. Two different experimental conditions were used to simulate laundering, namely wet-to-wet and dry-to-wet. The model PHMB surface concentrations showed that the model can be used to describe the adsorption kinetics on cotton and cotton-polyester blends with reasonable accuracy.
