This study investigates the impact of yarn count and stitch length of 100% cotton knitted fabrics. 1 × 1 ribs structured fabrics were used in this research work. The stitch length 2.50 mm, 2.52 mm, 2.60 mm, 2.70 mm, 2.80 mm and 2.96 mm were used of the yarn count of 26Ne, 28Ne and 36Ne. The areal densities of the grey fabrics were in various amounts. The impacts of yarn count and stitch length were measured concerning pilling resistance, abrasion resistance, and shrinkage and tightness factor. The result showed that the fabric pilling grade decreased while number of cycle increased. Abrasion resistance decreased but length wise shrinkage increased despite the fact that the stitch length increased. The results also exposed that the tightness factor of the fabric increased with the increase of the stitch length in both dyeing and washing state and finished state compared to grey state for the yarn count 26Ne and homogeneous result not found for yarn count 28Ne and 36 Ne.

The cost of making apparel fabrics for garment manufacturing is very high because of their conventional manufacturing processes and new methods/processes are being constantly developed for making fabrics by unconventional methods. With the advancements in technology and the availability of the innovative fibre, durable nonwoven fabrics by using the hydroentanglement process that can compete with the woven fabrics in terms of their aesthetic and tensile properties are being developed. In the work reported here, the hydroentangled nonwoven fabrics were developed through a hybrid nonwoven manufacturing processes by using fibrillated Tencel® and bi-component (sheath/core) polyethylene/polyester (PE/PET) fibres, in which the initial nonwoven fabrics were prepared by the needle-punching method followed by hydroentanglement process carried out at optimal pressures of 50 to 250 bars. The prepared fabrics were characterised according to the British Standards (BS 3356:1990, BS 9237:1995, BS 13934-1:1999) and the attained results were compared with those for a standard plain-weave cotton, polyester woven fabric and commercially available nonwoven fabric (Evolon®). The developed hydroentangled fabrics showed better drape properties owing to their flexural rigidity of 252 mg.cm in the MD, while the corresponding commercial hydroentangled fabric displayed a value of 1340 mg.cm in the MD. Tensile strength of the developed hydroentangled fabrics showed an approximately 200% increase than the commercial hydroentangled fabrics. Similarly, the developed hydroentangled fabrics showed higher properties in term of air permeability, such as the developed hydroentangled fabric exhibited 448 mm/sec and Evolon fabric exhibited 69 mm/sec at 100 Pa pressure. Thus for apparel fabrics, the work combining the existing methods of nonwoven production, provides additional benefits in terms of cost, time and also helps in reducing the carbon footprint for the apparel fabric manufacture.

In this study, the effects of ozone desizing treatment on the water absorption and tear strength of 100% cotton terry fabrics were investigated and the results were compared with those obtained by combined conventional desizing and scouring treatment. For this purpose, ozone dose, ozonation time and pile yarn length were considered as the factors. Ozone desizing process was carried out for four different terry fabric having different pile yarn lengths at two different ozone dose (500 and 1000 mL/minute), four different ozonation time (5, 15, 30, 45 minute). It was found that when the ozonation time or ozone dose increased the tear strength and abrasion resistance decreased, but the effect of ozone dose was remarkable on long ozonation duration. Also, it was determined that the combined conventional desizing and scouring process damaged the terry fabric much less than ozone desizing process.

This paper investigates the seam strength and efficiency along with, how fabric structural and sewing parameters as: weave design, weft density and seam type effect the strength and efficiency of seams. Six cotton fabrics having three weave designs and two weft densities were developed and sewn by five different seam sub-types. The lockstitch sewing machine was used. Strength of fabrics and seams were tested on Instron tensile machine. Assessments of all results were conducted with respect to weave design, weft density and seam sub-types separately by using a factorial design variance analysis. The study found that weave design significantly affect the seam strength and its efficiency in both directions. The direction of stitch is most important for seam efficiency. Moreover, the increasing trend was found towards seam strength and its efficiency by increasing the weft density. Each seam sub-type has its own strength values relative to each type of weave design and weft density. This research emphasizes only on cotton fabric with selected fabric structural parameters and seam sub-types. The presented conclusion is effective only this group of parameters and cannot be used inclusively. Thus far, the effect of different fabric structural parameters with seams has not been studied previously. This concern has been fulfilled in this research.

Knit spacer fabrics have gained popularity in varied functional applications. Some important types of these fabrics are highlighted. One such is in medical applications, wherein the weft knit spacer fabrics have been attempted in treating pressure ulcer. The results show that the air permeability, thermal conductivity and water vapor permeability of weft knitted spacer fabrics are comparable with the existing wound dressings. The compressional resistance and resilience of them are good for providing protection as wound dressing. The absorbency of them is somewhat better than some wound dressings; however, they are suitable for pressure ulcer wounds with no heavy extrude. Warp knit spacer fabrics offer a better option over polyurethane foam in car seats owing to their advantages such as better recovery to compression, thermal properties and breathability. Flat-knitted spacer fabrics offer a strong potential for complex shape preforms, which could be used to manufacture composites with reduced waste and shorter production times. This article focuses on the improved strength and stiffness of woven three-dimensional (3D) spacer fabrics used in fiber reinforced plastics. The spacer fabrics were manufactured using E-glass/polypropylene (GF/PP) hybrid yarns and are intended for lightweight engineering applications. Flat-knitted spacer fabrics offer a strong potential for complex shape preforms, which could be used to manufacture composites with reduced waste and shorter production times.

In this study, the bamboo fibre bundles (CAN retted fibre bundles) have been treated with sodium hydroxide at different processing conditions, in combination with potassium hydroxide and chlorine containing agent sodium chlorite solution. The purpose of this study was to develop efficient method for the extraction/loosening of bamboo fibres for further textile applications, therefore, lignin content, tensile strength, weight loss, moisture content, whiteness and yellowness indices were measured. Lignin content analysis of the extracted fibre bundles showed that there was a remarkable reduction in lignin content after these treatments. Scanning electronic microscopy of the treated bamboo fibre bundles showed removal of short elementary fibres from their surfaces in appropriate amount which further improved their overall physical properties of treated bamboo fibres.
