Objective Measurement of Pilling Resistance in Knitted Fabrics with Image Processing Techniques

In the textile industry, measurement techniques based on image processing principles prepare to take over subjective evalution.

In this study, MATLAB software was used to evaluate pilling of knitted fabrics as objective. Knitted fabric images were taken in the cycles of 1000, 2000, 3000, 5000 and 7000.

Fabric’s surface digitization, pills detection and segmentation were carried out from these images.

Texture analysis was performed with Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix (GLCM). After this phase, pill quantizations were made using images in matrix format obtained from image processing studies.

Standart deviation, entropy and mean of matrix elements, pill count, pill area and contrast values increased with the increase of rubbing cycles applied on the fabric.

Furthermore, the increase of rubbing cycles caused decrease in energy and homogeneity.

Usage of Recycled Cotton and Polyester Fibers for Sustainable Staple Yarn Technology

In this study, yarns were produced from cotton fibers (CO), recycled cotton fibers obtained from yarn wastes (r-CO) and fibers produced from recycled PET bottles (r-PET).

Tensile strength, elongation at break, unevenness (CVm), yarn imperfections (IPI) values and hairiness properties of these yarns were measured.

The purpose of this study was to eliminate negative characteristics of recycled cotton and polyester fibers with using together by open-end spinning system.

There was no study about r-CO/r-PET blends in the literature.

This study was also given significant findings related to these blends.

This paper obtained results which corroborate the findings of a considerable number of the previous works in CO/r-CO and CO/r-PET binary blends.

Furthermore, this study contributes to the extant literature.

Usage of Core and Dual-Core Yarns Containing Tungsten for Electromagnetic Shielding

Textile materials having electrically conductive features come to the forefront in the development of electromagnetic shielding products in the literature.

Yarns and fabrics containing high-conductivity and low surface/volume resistivity metal wires among these textile materials became important.

However, no research has been found about yarns containing tungsten wires and fabric structures composed of these yarns.

Point of origin of this study consisted of tungsten having similar electrical resistivity and electrically conductive properties with metals used for electromagnetic shielding such as silver, nickel and copper.

The aim of this paper was to evaluate and validate fabrics composed of tungsten with conductivity properties as an alternative electromagnetic shielding product.

From this point of view, three different core yarns were produced using Inox, Copper and Tungsten wires.

In addition to these core yarns, three different dualcore yarns were also produced with elastane and metal wires.

Furthermore, 100% CO (Cotton) yarn and core yarn containing elastane were selected as the control group.

Thus, obtained yarn set was used as weft material for the fabric production.

The properties of produced yarns and fabrics were determined and EMSE performances were examined comparatively.

The findings from this study indicate that the use of tungsten core yarn in the fabric structure can be an alternative to existing products for electromagnetic shielding.

This research will serve about products containing tungsten for electromagnetic shielding as a base for future works.

Commercialized Denim Fabric Production with Post-Industrial and Post-Consumer Wastes

The purpose of this study was to produce 100% recycled denim without a tradeoff in quality according to zero waste concepts.

Initially, the waste points from raw materials to final product in denim fabric production process were determined.

Then, denim fabrics were produced from post-industrial (recycled cotton fibers obtained from denim wastes) and post-consumer wastes (produced from recycled PET bottles).

Classic cotton fibers and alternative regenerated cellulose fibers (Tencel®) were used as carrier fiber in addition to mentioned fibers for eliminating recycled fibers disadvantages.

The effect of fiber types on yarn or fabric characteristics were investigated in accordance with planning design and construction.

Furthermore, the relationships between fibers and yarns/fabric results were statistically evaluated using correlation analysis.

The results of this investigation show that the amount of fibers have a significant effect on yarn unevenness, thick places, neps, hairiness, air permeability and abrasion resistance of the samples.

Properties Of the Yarns Produced From r-PET Fibers (Recycled PET Bottle Fibers) and Their Blends

r-PET fibers are basically derived from recycling PET bottle wastes.

These fibers can be accepted as eco-friendly because of their advantages and contributions to the reduction of energy and raw material costs.

In this study, properties of the yarns produced by r-PET fibers and their blends and their availability for textile industry were comparatively investigated.

Tensile strength, elongation, evenness, hairiness properties and IPI fault values of yarns spun using 9 different blend ratios were measured and their results were statistically evaluated.
