Çeşitli Yıkamaların Pamuklu ve Elastanlı ve Elastansız Coolmax Atkı İpliklerinden Üretilen Denim Kumaşların Bazı Konfor Özelliklerine Etkisi

Abstract

The performance of denim fabric under the influence of repeated home laundering techniques was investigated in this article. All fabrics have been produced from the same warp yarn (100% cotton) and four different weft yarns: 100% cotton (CT), 100% Coolmax (CM), Cotton & Elastane (CTE), and Coolmax & elastane (CME) and then subjected to one, ten, and twenty simulated home laundry cycles. Performance attributes such as air permeability, tearing strength, stiffness, drying performance, and color measurement were assessed. In addition, the significance of the washing effect on the parameters was determined using ANOVA and Tukey HSD multiple comparisons. In conclusion, frequent washing had a detrimental impact on air permeability, tearing strength, and stiffness, but did not affect drying performance. Aside from that, the successive washing has resulted in noticeable color changes.
