Effect of softening finishing on performance of luminous coated fabrics

In order to clarify the effect of softening finishing on the properties of luminous coated fabric,the softening treated fabric substrate and the untreated one were coated with luminous pigment,respectively.The afterglow brightness tester,draping tester,wearing tester and KES-F handle tester were used to test the luminescent performance,drapability,rubbing fastness and handle of the two luminous coated fabrics respectively.Compared with the luminous coated fabric without softening finishing,the luminous coated fabric with softening finishing exhibited a slight decline in afterglow brightness,rubbing fastness and washing durability but obvious improvement in handle.
