Abstract:
Coating and lamination are the finish process designed to add or improve specific properties of fabric and it depends on the polymer used and its recipe and also nature of substrate. The polymers used for coating comes in various nature from rigid to flexible according to the requirement. In this project work the polymers used were Thermoplastic polyurethane and poly vinyl chloride and were applied on polyester fabric by hot melt extrusion. Results were investigated for tear strength, Abrasion resistance and flexural rigidity keeping in mind fabrics application. Results suggest that TPU have more tear strength than PVC, also TPU is more abrasion resistant than PVC and more data are shown in the work.
