Popis: The rubbing-off of dye from fabrics was investigated from a kinetic viewpoint using various white cloths under weights of 2–6 N. The natural logarithm of the rate constant of dye transfer from dyed fabric to white cloths and that of the equilibrium constant were linearly related to the reciprocal of the rubbing force, which was given by the product of the weight and the friction coefficient between the dyed fabric and white cloth. Two straight lines were obtained, in spite of the variety of white cloths used, and they converged in the low rubbing force range. The results show that the dry rubbing fastness with various white cloths is primarily influenced by the friction coefficient and rubbing force rather than by the types of textile fibre or fabric.
