Abstract

Long time exposure to air pollutants, usually cause a fast deterioration effect on clothes. The effect of air pollutants-exsits in the atmosphere of EL-Nasr Co. for Fertilizers and Chemical Industries at Talkha- on the labour garments have been investigated. Three different fabrics made from pure cotton, polyester, and cotton-polyester blended fabric were chosen for the exposure to the factory atmosphere. An experimental rig was developed for the investigation of the effect of ammonia gas on grey cotton fabric, scoured cotton fabric, bleached cotton fabric and on dyed cotton fabric. It was found that fabric made from pure polyester has a higher resistance to the adverse effect of air pollutants mounting in the factory atmosphere, where the highest resistance obtained in the laboratory was from the grey cotton fabric. The behaviour of the specimens exposed to the ammonia in the static rig was similar to those exposed to the factory atmosphere indicating that the ammonia gas is the most effective agent in the factory atmosphere.
