Lohmann & Rauscher GmbH & Co. KG, Research and Development, Kirchengasse 17, 2525 Schoenau, Austria The linting propensity of a woven cellulosic substrate is investigated as a function of substrate characteristics and of different parameters in the test environment. The results from the linting propensity tests parallel those observed in liquid—solid extraction processes, where solutes are extracted from a matrix of other insoluble solids by selective dissolution in a liquid. The equation quantifying solute extraction in such systems also proves to be a good fit for the linting propensities observed in this work. Hence, it maybe possible to regard linting phenomena as extraction processes and to use the equation quantifying solute extraction to predict substrate linting as a function of both substrate characteristics and the test environment.
