To study the PET/bamboo and PET/cotton blend knitted garment on fabric handle characteristics behavior

摘要

The effect of yarn count, types of fibre and blend composition on fabrics properties made from Polyester/bamboo and Polyester/cotton blended yarn has been studied. Three types of blend of polyester/bamboo and polyester/cotton (80/20, 65/35, 50/50) are used for 20s and 30s Ne yarn preparation. The physical and mechanical properties of polyester/bamboo blended yarns are different from polyester/cotton blended yarn. However, as cotton content percentage increases in the blend, imperfections, hairiness, unevenness and increases. Hairiness value decreases with increase in bamboo content in blend. Abrasion resistance parameter is higher in polyester/bamboo fabric as compared to polyester/cotton blended fabrics. However, pilling resistance and bursting strength are lower in polyester/bamboo blended fabrics.
