 Full text | Abstract: Fancy yarns with colour and/or structure effects are often used in clothing fabrics. These yarns give decorativeness and improve the appearance of a garment. However, fancy yarns can change the end-use properties of a fabric. Therefore, the influence of the use of fancy yarns of different structure in clothing fabrics on such end-use properties of these fabrics as abrasion resistance and mass is analysed in this article. The influence of fancy yarn structure, raw material and fabric weave on the above-mentioned properties of fabrics with fancy yarns was established during the investigation, in which the influence of the abovementioned parameters of yarns and fabric on the abrasion resistance and mass of fabrics with fancy yarns was estimated. |
