Abstract (en)

A washing machine 1 is provided with a tub 4 for containing a detergent and a rotatable drum 5 located inside the tub 4, where an inner surface 40 of the tub 4 is at least partially covered with an anti-sticking coating 10. Therefore, an adhesive force for washing dirt of the tub 4 is greatly reduced. Generally, washing dirt does not accumulate easily in a washing process since dirt adhered temporarily is flushed away by shaking and striking of water flows. Meanwhile, if the washing machine 1 is further provided with a drum-cleaning program, a lot of high-speed water flow generated in the running of the cleaning program may desirably flush away accumulated washing dirt.
