Recently, the production of organic fibres and the recycling of textile waste have become essential global issues due to the decrease in non-renewable resources and the increase in disposal costs. The aim of this work was to identify changes in the properties of single jersey knitwear produced from conventional and sustainable fibres after 20 washes. The samples were knitted from different conventional and sustainable yarns. The selected conventional fibres were 100% cotton, 50% cotton-50% polyester and 100% polyester, while the sustainable fibres were 100% better cotton, 100% recycled polyester, and 50% organic cotton-50% recycled polyester. Measurements were taken before and after 20 washes according to the relevant standards. It was found that fabric produced from 100% recycled polyester is suitable for active sportswear due to its high air permeability, and resistance to heat and water vapor. In addition, the fabric with 50% organic cotton-50% recycled polyester fibres was more suitable for cold environmental conditions due to its lowest water vapor resistance, good air permeability and high thermal resistance.

The introduction of green chemistry has become urgent in the development of innovative, high-performance functional textiles to reduce the environmental footprint of their production. This study aims to develop a new eco-friendly process for the hydrothermal in-situ synthesis of TiO2 in cotton fabric and dyeing with curcumin natural dye to produce a photocatalytically active coloured textile platform with simultaneous UV protection properties. Two approaches were developed: classical, which included dyeing of the cotton samples with Curcuma longa (turmeric) extracts at different concentrations (5 g/L, 10 g/L and 15 g/L) and subsequent hydrothermal in-situ synthesis of TiO2 in the presence of the dyed cotton samples, and greener, in which simultaneous dyeing with turmeric extracts and hydrothermal in-situ synthesis of TiO2 were carried out. Since increasing the turmeric concentration hindered the photocatalytic performance of TiO2 in the chemically modified cotton samples, 5 g/L was selected as the most suitable turmeric concentration. A comparison of the chemical modification processes shows that the simultaneous dyeing of cotton with turmeric extract and hydrothermal in-situ synthesis of TiO2 was beneficial and resulted in a UV protection factor 50+, which corresponds to excellent protection category. The photocatalytic activity of TiO2 was maintained in the presence of turmeric, indicating the compatibility of both players in the chemically modified cotton, but not the creation of a turmeric–TiO2 heterojunction with visible-light-driven photocatalysis. The presence of TiO2 inhibited the photodegradation of the curcumin dye, further confirming the compatibility of the two players.

Resistance to ultraviolet radiation and electrostatic charge is a basic property that must be considered in the manufacture of fabrics, particularly in light of the climate changes affecting people around the world in various regions, especially in subtropical and tropical regions. It has thus become necessary to focus on the use of different natural fibres to mitigate UV transitions and the formation of electrostatic charges. The aim of this research was to enhance the protection of the ultraviolet effect and reduce electrostatic charge formation by blending cellulose yarns (bamboo and cotton) with trilobal polyester microfiber yarn that has characteristics such as lightweight, low-thickness, high strength, and shine. Knitted samples were produced from two different structures according to their tightness factor (single jersey and fleece structures), the various functional properties of the produced fabrics, such as mass per unit area, thickness, air and water permeability, and bursting strength, were tested. The properties of electrostatic charge and the ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) were also determined. The findings indicate that the samples produced with bamboo resulted in a preferable performance with different structures, especially when considering electrostatic charge and UPF properties. Moreover, the fleece structure had a more significant effect on knitted samples’ behaviour than the single jersey (plain) structure.

The article presents the results of the computer modelling of yarn winding on conical bobbins based on the analytical method of constructing tubular-shaped surfaces as a partial case of channel surfaces using the vector algebra apparatus. It is stated that the guide line takes the shape of a conical spiral line along which the forming moves (in the form of a circle with a diameter equal to the average diameter of the yarn), and is set using the moving Frenet basis. The obtained mathematical models facilitate the building, in MathCAD 3D visualization graphics, of a tubular-shaped surface, which represents the layers of yarn winding on a conical cartridge, and the reinforced yarn, which comprise the core component and the wrapping component, as well as the determination of both the lengths of individual layers of winding and the total length of winding (not including the transition sections). Well-known methods of forming geometric objects and computer modelling were also used in the work. The theoretical studies are based on the basic principles of textile production technology.

The mechanical properties of the carpet, such as dimensional stability, bending stiffness, handle and creeping on the surface during use, have a direct relationship with the amount of resin applied to the back of the carpet in the sizing process. In today’s factories, the optimal amount of resin and the mechanical quality of the carpet are controlled by the operator touching the carpet on the machine carpet finishing line or manually while rolling the carpet. Proposed in this paper is an automatic method based on the evaluation of the bending stiffness of the sized carpet that uses digital image processing and machine learning to measure the optimal amount of size concentration and control this index. For this purpose, during the final stage of carpet production, the carpet is folded in the middle, and two edges of the carpet are placed on top of each other. A side view image is then taken of the carpet. Using edge detection methods, the edges of the carpet are identified, and different features, such as the average, maximum and minimum statistics for the curve and contour angles, are then extracted. Different conventional machine learning approaches, such as KNN, CART and SVM, are applied. To evaluate the proposed method, a dataset containing 220 different images is used in a 10-fold cross-validation scheme. Different performance measures resulting from the evaluations demonstrate the effectiveness and applicability of the method.

The automation of current crocheting technology offers many possibilities. To fully exploit this potential, it is necessary to develop not only hardware, but also methods that enable the design of novel machine-crocheted fabrics. In the case of manual crocheting, approaches for an automated generation of crochet patterns according to 3D shapes have already been presented in the literature. However, the most technically advanced crocheting machine prototype currently proposed automates the crocheting of flat fabrics starting from a chain row. Given the limitations and operation of this so-called CroMat crocheting machine, a tool for shaping flat machine-crocheted fabrics according to 2D convex polygons is presented here. With this, surfaces can be divided into crochet stitches using a tessellation process and numerical optimization. The rules of the automated crocheting process were thus followed to ensure the machine manufacturability of generated patterns. Computer models of the fabrics were used as previews. In addition, the shaping possibilities of the CroMat crocheting machine, in particular with respect to increase and decrease stitches, are presented and discussed by means of the tessellation optimization of exemplary polygon shapes. Generally speaking, the algorithm extends the toolbox for designing machine-crocheted fabrics through the automated generation of valid crochet patterns corresponding to input shapes and according to the possibilities of the CroMat crocheting machine prototype.

Today, the need for fabrics that resist the growth of microorganisms is rising rapidly, as bacteria and other microbes are resistant to any clean room environment. In particular, health care and hygiene textile products must be more bacterial resistant. This study thus concentrated on developing antibacterial surgical textile products using eco-friendly material, such as casein and banana peel, which were used to coat fabric using cyclodextrin as a cross-linking agent. In this research work, fabric was treated with banana peel, casein, and a combination of banana peel and casein, without cyclodextrin, while cyclodextrin-loaded fabric treated samples were tested for antimicrobial resistance (AATCC100-2004). The treated samples initially studied using FTIR showed a peak point at 3,278.99 cm-1, which infers the presence of an O-H group for banana peel extract, and at 3,340.71 cm-1, which infers the presence of an N-H group for casein. Antimicrobial tests against E. coli showed a bacterial reduction of 81.44%, while a reduction of 52.80% was recorded for S. aureus. An analysis of untreated and treated samples showed that treatment with extracts of an agent through the pad-dry-cure process did not have a significant effect on the tensile and air permeability characteristics of the samples.

Dynamic anthropometry is a research field that refers to the physical characteristics and considers the measuring of a human body in dynamic positions. In dynamic positions, specific body measurements and surface dimensions change significantly compared to the measurements in a resting state. In that sense, this paper presents a research on dimensional changes conducted on a group of male test subjects in three dynamic positions with a defined set of body measurements relevant for the analysis of body measurement changes compared to the upright standing position. Using a Vitus Smart 3D body scanner and the Anthroscan program, the test subjects were scanned and measured in the upright standing position according to ISO 20685 and in three dynamic positions. Depending on the defined measurements for the analysis in each dynamic position, scanning markers were attached to test subjects’ bodies to ensure the precise determination of anthropometric measuring points. Based on the obtained measurement results, dimensional changes and correlations of the three dynamic positions relative to the measurements in the upright standing position were analysed. The analysis showed significant differences in dynamic positions measurements compared to the upright standing position and indicated the assumption that the dimensional changes of body in motion within a specific body constitution group depend on the initial body part dimensions. The determined results can be used in the design and construction process of functional clothing, since the target values of the garment ease allowances can be determined based on the measurement changes.

Cotton-polyester is a common and popular fibre blend in the textile industry nowadays. Its main advantage is that it improves the functional properties of clothing and textile products. In this study, fibre-blended, sliver-blended and roving-blended yarns with a fineness of 23 tex were manufactured using a ring spinning system, with blend ratios of cotton and polyester fibres of 50:50, 60:40 and 70:30. The quality parameters of the produced yarn, such as mass variations, imperfections, hairiness and bundle yarn strength, were studied. The end breakage rate of the ring frame machine was also studied during the manufacturing of the yarns. The results were analysed using multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) to determine the significance of the impact of the blending method and blending ratio on yarn quality and the end breakage rate of the ring frame machine. The profile plots were analysed from statistical and technical points of view. Among the three blended yarns, fibre-blended yarn demonstrated the best results in terms of mass variations and imperfections due to better blending homogeneity, while roving-blended yarn demonstrated better results in terms of hairiness. Among the blended yarn, fibre-blended yarn demonstrated the highest bundle yarn strength value, while the corresponding end breakage rate of the ring frame machine recorded the lowest value. The yarn quality was improved in terms of mass variations, imperfections, hairiness and bundle yarn strength by increasing the polyester fibre percentage in the blend ratio.

Among the three blended yarns, fibre-blended yarn demonstrated the best results in terms of mass variations and imperfections due to better blending homogeneity, while roving-blended yarn demonstrated better results in terms of hairiness. Among the blended yarn, fibre-blended yarn demonstrated the highest bundle yarn strength value, while the corresponding end breakage rate of the ring frame machine recorded the lowest value. The yarn quality was improved in terms of mass variations, imperfections, hairiness and bundle yarn strength by increasing the polyester fibre percentage in the blend ratio.","PeriodicalId":22555,"journal":{"name":"TEKSTILEC","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135295910","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As constant yarn feeding tension is essential in the formation of uniform stitches, the lack of a monitoring system in a circular weft knitting machine capable of measuring the uniformity of the yarn feeding speed in different driven belts and comparing the feeding rate during the knitting process has led to the use of experimental methods which are dependent on skilled operators. Additionally, in the case of any defects, the equalisation is done by the operator using the trial-and-error method, which consequently increases the risk of human error. Considering the importance of a uniform adjustment of yarn feeding speed on the quality of final fabrics, a monitoring system for measuring and reporting yarn feeding speed was designed. Following its installation on a circular weft knitting machine, the performance of the system in an industrial environment was evaluated. A comparison with the traditional system proved the functionality of the designed automation process. The current study highlights the characteristics of an appropriate sensor, the applicable installation place and direct data reception without intermediaries.
