Aim of course
Physical chemical fundamentals and knowledge needed for better understanding and developing the numerous unit operations of different wet textile treatments in textile pretreatment and finishing processes. On the base of these fundamentals textile materials undergo the chemical, physical, physical chemical and biological processes. Efficiency of all these processes depends mostly on the transport and interface phenomena that include wetting, capillarity and adsorption phenomena.
