Abstract
The air permeability of the fabric is affected by the type of yarn used, the loom speed, and the amount of air pressure delivered by the relay nozzles. In this study, 21 Ne of ring and rotor spun yarns were used as a weft in an air jet loom. Loom speed and left- and right-side relay nozzles pressure in a range of 400–600 RPM, 2–4 bar, and 3–6.5 bar, respectively, were taken as additional factors. To develop and analyze the experiment, a full factorial design was used. It was observed that the air permeability of rotor spun weft yarn fabric’s is greater than ring spun weft yarn fabrics. Furthermore, when the speed of the loom increased and the left- and right-side relay nozzles air pressure decreased, the fabric’s air permeability increased and vice versa.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
