  Abstract

The electrospun nano-web is a very good candidate to replace Gore-Tex due to its similar structural characteristics. However, its water resistance is relatively low compared to Gore-Tex. In this study, silicone oils were applied to enhance the water resistance of nano-webs by coating their surface using the cross-linking reaction of the oils. Treating conditions such as time, temperature, and concentration of oil were varied and moisture permeability and water resistance were examined. DSC was used to test the curing reaction of the oils. FT-IR and scanning electron microscopy were used to confirm the crosslinking reaction between oils. The best result was obtained by treatment with an oil concentration of 3%, under the thermal treatment conditions of 150oC. for 120 s. As a result, the durability and water resistance of the fabric were improved, while moisture permeability was partly maintained.
