Abstract

Abstract The main goal of this study is to examine drying practices in order to make an objective evaluation of polyester woven fabric properties after several cycles of tumble-drying. Abrasion damage to polyester woven fabric during drying in a household tumble dryer are evaluated by SEM (scanning electron microscopy), smoothness appearance, dimensional stability and strain tests. Results showed that the surface of polyester fiber presented various damages after suffering from abrasion for a series of drying cycles, including peeling off, fragments flaking, spots and wrinkles, but no obvious fiber fracture or crack was found. And found that drying had little effect on smoothness appearance, dimensional stability and tensile strength. This indicated that drying had no overall effect on fabric physical and mechanical properties. Moreover, moisture loss patterns during drying as a function of time or temperature indicate possible ways to minimize dryer abrasion damage by reducing unnecessary tumble-drying time. This founding is helpful to understand of damage mechanism of polyester woven fabrics drying in dryer and proves that using tumble dryer to dry polyester woven fabrics is possible and effective.

期刊介绍： Drying Technology explores the science and technology, and the engineering aspects of drying, dewatering, and related topics. Articles in this multi-disciplinary journal cover the following themes: -Fundamental and applied aspects of dryers in diverse industrial sectors- Mathematical modeling of drying and dryers- Computer modeling of transport processes in multi-phase systems- Material science aspects of drying- Transport phenomena in porous media- Design, scale-up, control and off-design analysis of dryers- Energy, environmental, safety and techno-economic aspects- Quality parameters in drying operations- Pre- and post-drying operations- Novel drying technologies. This peer-reviewed journal provides an archival reference for scientists, engineers, and technologists in all industrial sectors and academia concerned with any aspect of thermal or nonthermal dehydration and allied operations.
