Abstract

In this study, atmospheric air pressure plasma is treated on plain bamboo fabric. The importance of doing this surface modification is to study the comfort properties of the effect made by plasma treated bamboo fabric. This study is concentrated on the evaluation of the comfort properties like air permeability, water vapour permeability, and wickability of the surface modified fabric. The results show that the plasma treated fabric outperforms the untreated bamboo fabrics in terms of air permeability and wickability in the warp and weft directions with a 5 minute interval time. But water vapour characteristics reveal the similar characteristics in both plasma treated and untreated fabric. Thus, this research work helps in understanding the comfort properties of surface modified bamboo fabric.
