In spite of many advantages of cellulosic fibers, they can wrinkle easily. Because of the performance enhancing finishes, the wrinkle property can be eliminated. In this study, it was aimed to investigate the effect of causticizing treatment before the crease resistance finishing on the crease resistance, breaking strength and abrasion resistance properties of the fabrics. The causticizing processes were applied to 100% mercerized cotton, 100% unmercerized cotton, 100% linen, and 100% viscose woven fabrics at different caustic-soda concentration. The fabric type, the causticsoda concentration and the concentration of crosslinking agent parameters were evaluated independently. The obtained results were discussed.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCellulosic FibersCausticizingWRABreaking StrengthWeight LossArticle2618491WOS:000374887200010Q3
