Shell buckling behavior of fused composite worsted fabrics

Investigation of Air Permeability of Cotton & Modal Knitted Fabrics

In this study, it was aimed to investigate the porosity / compactness of the knitted structures made from cotton and modal yarns and to evaluate the air permeability property for sportswear. In the experimental section, cotton and modal yarns spun in different counts ( Ne 30, Ne 40 ) with the same twist coefficient of αe = 3.53 and 3.3 respectively were knitted as single jersey fabrics in the s...

A Controlled Experiment on Yarn Hairiness and Fabric Pilling

This study is focused on the hairiness of worsted wool yarns and how it affects the pilling propensity of knitted wool fabrics. Conventional worsted ring spun yarns are compared with comparable Solospun yarns and yarns modified with a hairiness reducing air nozzle in the winding process (JetWind). Measurements of yarn hairiness (S3) on the Zweigle G565 hairiness meter shows a reduction in the S...

Effect of atmospheric pressure air plasma treatment on desizing and wettability of cotton fabrics

Atmospheric pressure air plasma has been used to treat grey cotton fabrics and the effect of treatment on their desizing and wettability properties is studied using the dielectric barrier discharge plasma with air and helium gas mixture. The weight loss due to etching has been determined by gravimetric method, the surface structure observed by SEM, the wettability studied by wicking action and ...

Predicting Worsted Spinning Performance with Artificial Neural Network Modeling

For a given fiber spun to a pre-determined yarn specification, the spinning performance of the yarn usually varies from mill to mill. For this reason, it is necessary to develop an empirical model that can encompass all known processing variables that exist in different spinning mills and then to generalize this information and be able to accurately predict yarn quality for an individual mill. ...
