Introduction Light is very essential on earth. Source of light on earth is SUN
U.V Radiations Ultraviolet
Radiations are electromagnetic rays with a wavelength between 100-400nm.
Solar UVR that reaches earth have wavelength between 290-400nm.
Classification Of U.V Rays U.V rays has three regions depending
upon wavelength:
Ultraviolet region – A (UVA) Ultraviolet region – B (UVB) Ultraviolet region – C (UVC)
Characteristics Of U.V regions
Region Wavelength(nm)
Relative Intensity(%)
Av. Photon Energy(kj/mol)
UV-A 315-400 3.2 315
UV-B 280-315 2.4 350
UV-C 100-280 0.5 400
Factors Affecting Solar U.V Level
Sun angle Geographical Position Seasonal Effects Clouds Ozone Scattering Altitude Time of day
Effects Of U.V radiations: Human Skin The major effects
of UV are sunburn, erythema(skin reddening), skin cancer, DNA damage.
Protection Factor Protection factor is used to quantify the
protective effect of material. SPF/UPF is the ratio of actual potential
erythemal effect to the erythemal effect transmitted through the fabric.
Larger the UPF/SPF, the more protective the fabric to UV radiation.

Factors
UPF depends upon following factors: Cover Factor THE MORE THE COVER FACTOR, HIGH IS UPF
Color Humidity THE UPF INCREASED AS THE RELATIVE HUMIDITY INCREASED, BUT THIS INCREASE IS FIBRE DEPENDENT, MORE PRONOUNCED IN IN VISCOSE & SILK
Measuring Methods Of UPF
Measuring methods of UPF are:
UV Standard 801
AS/NZS 4396/1996
EN 13578-1
BRIEFING:
Effect Of UVR On Textile Material: U.V radiations cause degradation of
textile materials due to excitations in some parts of the polymer molecule.
This results decrease in elasticity, tensile strength.
For example:
Fabric % Loss In Tensile Strength
Nylon 100
Cotton 34
When solar radiations impinge on a textile , the radiation can be completely reflected, dispersed & absorbed
There are two possibilities of reducing UV transmittance by fabrics• To optimize the fabric construction so as to increase the skin cover
by fibers, which can be achieved by spacing the yarns as closely as possible. UV transmittance can also be reduced by improving the absorption & reflection properties
• By use of UV absorbers
U.V Absorbers
UV absorbers are colorless compounds with very strong absorption in the UV range of 290-400nm.
UV Absorbers incorporated into fibres convert electronic excitation energy into thermal energy.
They function as radical scavengers and oxygen scavengers.
Requirements of UV Absorbers:
Highest absorbency in the ultraviolet region {290-340nm} and no absorbency in the visible region.
UV Absorbers should be non-toxic and non-skin irritant.
These should be heat stable and compatible with other additives in finish formulation.
It should remain stable against UVR itself. It should be suitable for use in powder, liquid
detergents and rinse conditioners.
Types of UV Absorbers:
UV Absorbers are of two types: Organic Absorbers Inorganic Absorbers. Organic Absorbers: These are derivatives of O-hydroxy
benzophenone, O-hydroxyphenyl benzotriazole and O-hydroxy phenyltriazine.
These are applied by normal padding, coating, pad thermosol process.
These have excellent sublimation fastness and self dispersing formulation.
In these, orthohydroxy group is for absorption and to make soluble alkaline solution.
Inorganic Absorbers: These are compounds of Titanium oxide and
ceramic materials. These have an absorption capacity in the UV
region of 290-400nm.
Mechanism of UV Absorbers
UV absorption causes the electron density to move from the phenolic oxygen to the nitrogen atom.
The nitrogen becomes more alkaline than the oxygen as a result and a proton transfer occurs.
This mesomeric form represents an excited state, which stabilizes as a result of a radiation less transition to the ground state.
Technology:
UV Absorbers are incorporated either into spinning dope prior to fibre extrusion or in dyeing.
These are applied by normal padding, exhaust, pad dry cure and pad thermosol methods.
These are applied between 30-40g/lt. The concentration depends on type of
fibre and its construction.
