Abstract
This study examines the effect of the particle size of fluorocarbon-based water-oil-soil-repellent finishing agents on color fastness and colorimetric properties by experimental analyses. Therefore, two finishing agents with different particle sizes were applied to red-dyed and blue-dyed knitted fabric samples of single jersey and rib-structured knits, produced from 100% cotton yarns. The results show that smaller particle size causes less color change for all washings (0, 1 and 5), both of the dyes and the fabric structures (single jersey and rib). Also, it is observed that smaller particle size positively affects the rub fastness results.
