BURSTING STRENGTH AND PILLING PROPERTIES OF WEFT KNITTED FABRICS MADE FROM CONVENTIONAL RING AND COMPACT SPUN YARN (Pages : 81 - 86)

Compact Spinning is a new version of ring spinning and distinct features of these yarns are their high strength and elongation values and low hairiness. In this research work cotton yarns, produced from same cotton blend were spun according to compact and conventional ring spinning principles in three different counts. Three different knitting structures single jersey, rib and interlock were produced from these yarns. The physical properties of those fabrics were investigated and compared with each other before and after dyeing processes. When the results were studied, it was observed that higher bursting strength was found in all knitted fabrics made from compact yarn. Compact yarn based knitted fabrics showed fewer tendencies to pilling compared to knitted fabrics made from conventional ring yarn.Download
