Focusing on green chemistry and sustainability, this book discusses how plasma treatment has been used to modify textile properties. The book highlights the benefits of generating plasma and the reaction mechanisms between the surface of a textile and plasma species. The text addresses factors such as the nature of plasma gas, gas flow rate, system pressure, and discharge power that affect the final results of plasma treatments. An opening chapter presents current "brown" methods of treating textiles, exploring the environmental, economic and social costs of these methods. Throughout the book,…mehr

Produktbeschreibung
Focusing on green chemistry and sustainability, this book discusses how plasma treatment has been used to modify textile properties. The book highlights the benefits of generating plasma and the reaction mechanisms between the surface of a textile and plasma species. The text addresses factors such as the nature of plasma gas, gas flow rate, system pressure, and discharge power that affect the final results of plasma treatments. An opening chapter presents current "brown" methods of treating textiles, exploring the environmental, economic and social costs of these methods. Throughout the book, the author presents the twelve principles of green chemistry and how they can be applied to the textile industry.
Autorenporträt
C.W. Kan is an associate professor at the Institute of Textiles and Clothing, which is part of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. His research interests fall in the area of textile colouration and finishing and focusses on the surface modification of textile materials with the use of novel technologies such as plasma and laser. Dr. Kan graduated from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University with a BSc and PhD in textile chemistry. He has published more than 300 refereed journal papers and conference proceedings.
