UV curing of perfluoro-alkyl-polyacrylate resins able to impart water as well as oil-repellency to cotton fabrics was studied in comparison with conventional thermal polymerization. The process was assessed through weight gain and gel content measurements while the properties conferred to cotton fabrics were determined in terms of water and oil contact angles, moisture adsorption, and water vapor permeability. The polymerization yields were of the same order (>80 %) of those obtained with thermal curing as well as the high contact angles with water (>127 degrees) and oil (>118 degrees) even at low resin add-on (3 %). UV cured resins yielded oil contact angles mostly higher than 120 degrees denoting super oil-repellent surfaces. Moreover the water and oil-repellency was adequately maintained after washing. The moisture adsorption of finished fabrics was lower than that of untreated cotton, but slightly higher for UV cured than thermally treated fabrics. Water vapor transmission rate showed that the finish treatment, thermal as well as by UV curing, does not reduce the breathability of the original cotton. DSC analysis demonstrated that the fiber pyrolysis is affected by the polymer add-on, while FTIR-ATR spectra of all finished fabrics showed typical peaks of ester and C-F groups. XPS analysis showed small differences between thermal and UV curing coatings with each resin, while coatings with the lowest percentage of fluorine groups did not affect the water and oil-repellency.
