4 answers
The air flow resistivity of a fabric increases when the temperature and concentration of alkalization increase due to several factors. Firstly, alkali treatment removes lignin and hemicellulose from the fabric, enhancing the adhesion between the fabric and resin. This removal of components leads to changes in the fabric's structural characteristics and chemical composition, increasing its ability for moisture sorption. Additionally, the alkali treatment alters the fabric's dielectric properties, such as effective relative dielectric permeability and AC specific electrical conductivity, which further impact its air flow resistivity. Moreover, the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness of fabrics significantly increases with alkali treatment, affecting their overall resistivity. Therefore, the combined effects of improved adhesion, moisture sorption capabilities, and altered dielectric properties contribute to the increase in air flow resistivity with higher temperature and concentration of alkalization.
