EFFECT OF DIFFERENT WASHING ON DENIM GARMENT PROPERTIES (Pages : 54 - 59)

Garments washing is a technology by which outlook, comfort ness (soft feeling), fashion of garments are changed or modified and given old garments effect. Various types of chemicals and materials may need to do the specific wash. In this research work different types of washing effect (Bleach wash, Enzyme wash, stone wash, caustic wash and super white wash) on denim garments have been studied. Different properties of denim garments like fabric strength, fabric weight loss, colorfastness to washing, rubbing fastness, colorfastness to light and dimensional stability were investigated and compared with each other before after washing process. When the result was examined it was found that during stone wash fabric strength remain same after washing but considerable amount of strength loss occurred in enzymatic and bleach wash. All the samples from different garments wash showed good colorfastness to wash and light except stone wash. Fabric weight loss was found lowest in stone wash in comparing with bleach and enzyme wash.
