Poly(L-lactic acid) micro-fibers which have antibacterial activity were prepared via electro-spinning by adding antibacterial agent Triclocarban (TCC). The effect of solvent, mass concentration of TCC on the structure and morphology of electrospun TCC/PLA micro-fibers were investigated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM).The effect of mass concentration of antibacterial (TCC) on antibacterial property was investigated. The results revealed that, when the solvent of spinning were dichloromethane and polyethylene glycol (400), the dissolvability of TCC and the effect of electrospun TCC/PLA were better and the solvent ratio was CH2Cl2:PEG(400)=9:1(V:V). As the mass concentration of TCC increased from 0.1% to 0.6%, the structure of fibers mainly remained unchange and the diameter of fibers increased slightly. When Triclocarban was 0.5%, the inhibiting efficiency of the composite micro-fiber was 98.6% and 94.2% respectively against Staphylococcus aurous and Escherichia coli.

According to the existing manual methods to measure dimensional changes of fabric after laundering has an obvious error and low accuracy, especially the case with irregular shape, this paper proposes a method based on machine vision to calculate the fabric area change and then evaluate dimension stability of fabric after being washed. Six types of pure wool fabrics are chosen as experimental materials, which will be washed under different washing, rinse, spin time procedures before dry and image capture by machine vision system. The dimensional stability will be evaluated by taking the average dimensional change ratio not only in both warp and weft direction, but also in area before and after laundering, which will be calculated from the fabric images. Compared with the manual measurement, the computer vision method proposed in this paper can represent the dimensional change more globally and accurately, which provides a test basis for fabric design and washing program optimization.
