A series of chemical penetrants are employed to
investigate the chemical characteristics of size bonds in
different sizing systems. The bonding strength has been
proved to be determined by the type of bonding. In rosinalum
size the size bond is an indirect coordinate bond,
which is vulnerable to the attack...
First, a thermodynamic analysis was carried out upon a
sizing-desizing process. The energetic analysis shows that
rosin soap size should be bound to fibers through primary
chemical forces such as covalent bonds to effect sizing.
Secondary chemical forces are all thermodynamically unstable
to the attack of water molecules. It is...
