Abstract:
Scouring and Bleaching is done commonly for the woven fabric for improving the surface of the fabric Removal of natural and added impurities using caustic soda and Hydrogen per-oxide from cotton woven fabric .The object of our project is to identify the effect of scouring and bleaching on the characteristics of woven fabric .To conduct this project work three fabrics which are 100% cotton plain woven fabric ,100% cotton satin and 100% cotton twill were taken. Moreover, some tests like GSM, Absorbency test, EPI, PPI, Tensile strength, Tear strength were done to identify the change in the characteristics of woven fabric. It has been observed that scouring and bleaching has significant impact on characteristics of woven fabric.
