Thermal resistant property was
imparted to the cotton fabric using banana pseudo stem aqueous
extract. The aqueous extract from banana pseudo stem
with different pH levels (6 to 8) were applied
on bleached cotton fabric using pad dry cure method.
The time and temperature of the finish was kept
constant. The influence of pH on various properties of
cotton fabric such as air permeability, wick
ability and thermal resistivity were investigated. The
result shows that the fabric treated with pH 6.5
has given high thermal resistivity than other treated
fabrics. It is also found that the air permeability
and wick ability of the fabrics are not changed due to
change in pH. Further the chemical composition
of treated cotton fabric is analyzed by FTIR and SEM.
