Abstract
Fabrics with water-repellent properties are always highly preferred structures in the textile industry. It is a known fact that fluorocarbon compounds, which are widely used for this purpose, are quite harmful to the environment. Therefore, within the scope of this study, a water repellent chemical that does not contain fluorocarbon compounds was treated to 100% cotton fabrics and compared with fluorocarbon compounds. As a result of the analyzes, it has been seen that the environmentally friendly chemical is at least as effective as the fluorocarbon compounds. According to the spray test, a water repellency at ISO 5 level was obtained. In addition, the fabrics' high water vapor permeability, air permeability and low bending stiffness (280 mg.cm) were given effective results in terms of usage properties. This has yielded very important results in terms of sustainability and eliminating the use of fluorocarbons in ecological terms.
期刊介绍：
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
