Enhancing the wearer’s comfort is possible by engineering fabric structures by incorporating suitable fibers. For doing so, in this study, bilayered spacer fabric samples were produced from sustainable fibers namely, recycled PA66 and PA6-Umorfil yarns, together with 44 dtex elastane. A PA6 FDY monofilament yarn was employed as the spacer yarn. The results showed that comfort properties of sports apparel can be improved by using recycled and Umorfil poliamide fibers in different parts of the garments depending on the intended use and purposes. Use of such sustainable fibers in the fabric structure is not only suitable for achieving active sportswear comfort but also is respectful to the environment.","PeriodicalId":22221,"journal":{"name":"Tekstil Ve Konfeksiyon","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69987068","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Even though aramid fibers have good thermal stability and flame resistance properties, fabrics used in protective clothing age and loss some of their essential functions under various environmental and operational conditions during their lifetime. These conditions cause serious limitations in the use of clothing. In this study, various woven fabrics produced from aramid (Nomex, Kevlar) fabrics were exposed to accelerated aging tests under varying temperature and time period in order to construct Neural Network models to predict weight loss and tensile strength loss percentages of the fabrics. The results of Artificial Neural Network models demonstrate that regression values are 0.98405 for weight loss percentages and 0.99935 for tensile strength loss percentages of the fabrics. Accordingly, the proposed Artificial Neural Network models are correctly constituted and the losses in determined fabric properties is successfully predicted.","PeriodicalId":22221,"journal":{"name":"Tekstil Ve Konfeksiyon","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48932893","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Polyurethane stands out as a widely used polymer for coating textile products used in outdoor applications, because of high stability at low temperature, flexibility, no or very little volatile organic component content, high water resistance, pH stability, excellent solvent resistance, weather resistance, and many other chemical and mechanical properties. In the study, cotton, polyester, and viscose fabrics were coated with polyurethane and aged under UV light to investigate the causes and behaviors of the mechanical degradation effects of UV on the coating material and fiber. The results indicate that the PU coating process improves the mechanical properties of textile materials while being exposed to UV rays deteriorates the fabric structure. The deterioration in the structure of raw and coated fabrics with the effect of UV increased the air permeability. According to the results of DSC analysis, the increase in the time of UV exposure did not create significant differences in terms of thermal degradation temperatures in both cotton and viscose fabrics. The glass transition temperatures (Tg) increase with more exposure to UV rays, and the UV exposure time had a negative effect on the melting temperature (Tm) and enthalpy (ΔH) of coated polyester fabrics.","PeriodicalId":22221,"journal":{"name":"Tekstil Ve Konfeksiyon","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48624301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this purpose, twenty-four commercial sewing threads with different types and linear densities were selected for the present study. The samples were sewn with specific sewing parameters. Half of the fabric samples were then subjected to 10 washing cycles. After sample preparation, the change in tensile properties after sewing and washing was calculated and the seam strength of the sewn and washed-sewn samples was measured. It was observed that the breaking strength of each parent thread was significantly higher than its corresponding sewn and washed-sewn thread strength. Considering the strength loss after sewing and after washing, it was found that, among the different types of sewing threads, the samples sewn with core-spun threads showed lower strength loss, while the samples sewn with cotton threads showed the highest loss. Moreover, the values of seam strength after washing are higher for PES-Co core-spun thread and mercerized cotton thread than before washing. However, an opposite trend was observed for the samples sewn with polyester spun and PES-PES core-spun thread. High correlations were observed between the parent thread and the strength of the sewn thread, the strength of the washed-sewn thread and the seam strength before washing.","PeriodicalId":22221,"journal":{"name":"Tekstil Ve Konfeksiyon","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"69984627","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Normally garment cut wastes and recycled fibres from garment cut wastes are used in textile, furniture, carpet, paper, automobile, construction, and agricultural industries in low mechanical performance applications. In this research, composites are developed by using recycled fibres obtained from garment cut wastes as reinforcement and with different types of matrices. Recycled fibres used as reinforcements are obtained from garment cut wastes of cotton, polyester and cotton/polyester fabrics to develop these composites. These composites are developed by using Epoxy resin, Kaolinite, Polypropylene sheet as matrices. Reinforcements and matrices have used in different compositions and combinations to develop these composites. The main advantages of this type of composites are to combine the different properties of different materials to obtain unique and high-performance material. Technical properties like thickness, mass per unit area, Tensile strength, Flexural strength, Impact strength, Water absorbency and Scanning Electron Microscope of developed composites were tested and analyzed. The outcome of the results demonstrates that many of the composite proportions with different blend, reinforcement and matrcies show superior mechanical performances when compare it with each other, and it can be recommended for many potential applications.","PeriodicalId":22221,"journal":{"name":"Tekstil Ve Konfeksiyon","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135741980","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A novel method was adopted using different combinations of wash loads and their corresponding temperature, wash duration, and agitation on the amount of MFs being shed. Results concluded that recycled polyester fleece and distressed jeans showed heightened shedding levels (approx. 49% of total emission).
