摘要：

A new microwave curing system was used to affect crosslinking of cotton fabric with nonformaldehyde finishes, namely, glyoxal, glutaraldehyde and 1,2,3,4 butaneretracarboxylic acid (BTCA). Water soluble chitosan was incorporated in the finishing bath in order to impart antibacterial activity to the fabric in addition to the ease of care characteristics. Glyoxal proved to be the best finish and, hence, it was studied along with the chitosan under a variety of conditions including chitosan concentrations, power and time of microwave Curing. Besides the crease recovery and strength properties of the finished fabrics, the latter were also monitored for N%, antibacterial activity and characterized using scanning electron microscope (SEM) and FTIR spectra when compared. With conventional curing system, the microwave curing system was found advantageous in production of cotton fabrics with easy care antibacterial properties without high losses in strength properties.
