Cyclic microwave treatment of pressed garments. Final report
- PRESSET, Inc. (United States); PRESSET, INC.
In the early 1990's there was a resurgence in what was called "wrinkle free" garments. It had been popular in the 1960's. As cotton products gained a larger share of the fiber market in apparel, "wrinkle free" became a very strong marketing effort. Because we were very knowledgeable in this market we investigated the problem that had plagued it in the 60's, namely product quality. To make "wrinkle free" garments one had to either buy a fabric that was treated with chemicals, called resins, that when "cured" would impart the "wrinkle free" qualities to the garment permanently.
