APPLICABILITY OF WET CLEANING FOR FUNCTIONAL FABRICS WITH SHIELD EFFECT PROPERTIES

The research is focused on investigation of six functional textiles (FF1 to FF6) before and after 10 cycles of wet cleaning through analysis of shield effectiveness (SE) at frequencies 1.8 GHz and 2.1 GHz. Functional protective materials differed in structural features as well a metal type (copper, silver and stainless steel) integrated in the structure. The results showed differences in the degree of protection of the analyzed protective materials depending on both variation. The highest durability in shield effectiveness (SE) possessed functional fabrics with integrated stainless steel (FF5 and FF6) after the 10th wet cleaning cycle, while fabrics coated with copper (FF1) lost protective properties. The research indicates the importance of monitoring the durability of functional properties under maintenance conditions.
