Abstract
Provided are a method capable of imparting antistaticity to a fabric structure in a simple manner without causing any color change in the fabric structure, a fabric structure imparted with antistaticity by the method, and a washing machine that imparts antistaticity to a fabric structure according to the method. The method for imparting antistaticity to a fabric structure allows a metal or metal compound to adhere on a surface of the fabric structure by drying the fabric structure in a state where a liquid containing the metal or the metal compound exists on the surface of the fabric structure.
Claims8
A method for imparting antistaticity to a fabric structure, comprising:
- applying water containing silver ions of a first concentration on surfaces of clothes in a rinsing step after a washing step of the clothes;
- spraying the water containing silver ions of a second concentration, larger than the first concentration, on the surface of the clothes using an atomizer mist;
- and
- drying the fabric structure in a state where the applied water containing silver ions is present and adheres on the surface of the fabric structure via surface tension.
