Abstract

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.

关于用传统和可持续棉纤维和聚酯纤维生产的针织面料舒适性能的研究

最近，由于不可再生资源的减少和处理成本的增加，有机纤维的生产和纺织废物的回收利用已成为至关重要的全球性问题。这项工作的目的是确定用传统纤维和可持续纤维生产的单面针织衫在洗涤 20 次后的特性变化。样品由不同的传统纱线和可持续纱线编织而成。所选的传统纤维为 100% 棉、50% 棉-50% 聚酯和 100% 聚酯，而可持续纤维为 100% 改良棉、100% 再生聚酯和 50% 有机棉-50% 再生聚酯。根据相关标准，在洗涤前和洗涤 20 次后进行了测量。结果发现，100% 再生聚酯纤维制成的织物透气性强，耐热性和耐水蒸气性好，适合用于运动服装。此外，50% 的有机棉-50% 的回收聚酯纤维制成的面料具有最低的抗水蒸气性、良好的透气性和较高的抗热性，因此更适合在寒冷的环境条件下使用。
