Abstract

In order to explore the pilling mechanism of fabrics drying in domestic dryers, the pilling propensity and surface morphology of wool fabrics after drying were intensively investigated and compared under different rotating-drying models with help of pilling box and Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Results showed the pilling mechanism of wool fabric drying in dryer is not temperature mechanism but rotating-drying models (mechanical movement models of drum) mechanisms. Therefore, the model of alternating clockwise and counterclockwise rotating-drying in dryer should be regarded as appealing rotating-drying model for the wool fabrics drying in dryer.
