Abstract

Cotton fabric coated with polyacrylic rubber can be used as a replacement for polyethylene bags to avoid plastic pollution. In this research, we have investigated the use of polyacrylic rubber with 100% cotton fabric as a finishing agent where 2% of ammonium chloride was used as a catalyst. A pad-dry-cure technique was applied for the preparation of cotton fabric samples varying 6%, 8%, 10%, 12%, and 14% polyacrylic rubber. Tensile strength, tear strength, and bursting strength produced a balanced improvement in properties. After appealing gyro wash on each sample, it is established that the strength of the fabric has decreased slightly. Assessment of these properties has had a good impact on the strength of the fabric making which is a viable substitute for polyethylene bags.
