Article Synopsis
- Elastane fibers are crucial in making elastic yarn, and this research focuses on innovative methods to create hybrid yarns with dual cores.
- A modified pulley system was developed to insert core elements alongside traditional methods during yarn production, using various materials like cotton, PBT, and elastane.
- The results show that inserting core components side by side improves the yarn's strength, elongation, and reduces hairiness, indicating a successful new technique for producing higher quality hybrid yarns.
Article Synopsis
- - Recent advancements in dual core spun yarns, utilizing multicomponent cores, have led to their widespread adoption in the textile industry, supported by technologies like V-grooved rollers for better feeding.
- - This study introduces a new W-grooved roller feeding mechanism specifically designed for composite yarn production, highlighting modifications in the ring spinning system to optimize yarn quality.
- - Results indicate that wrapped elastic composite yarns outperform traditional options in strength, elongation, and fabric performance, leading to denim fabrics with higher durability and lower growth post-stress.
Textile industries are now focusing on sustainable issues in manufacturing operations to save the environment. The study focuses on the use of cotton fibers (recycled) sourced from fabric (knitted) waste (pre-consumer) to manufacture elastic yarn (dual-core) for denim fabric. The study involves the production of yarns (dual-core) using a redesigned ring spinning method with different elastomeric components, including T400® (Polyethylene terephthalate)/Polytrimethylene terephthalate), Polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), Polyester (PES), Lycra® (elastane), virgin cotton and cotton (recycled) fiber.

Numerous studies have shown that chitosan polymers can be advantageous to be used in medicine due to their high antibacterial activity. In this study, biocompatible yellow cantorone oil doped hydrogels (chitosan/poly(vinyl alcohol) based) with antimicrobial properties were synthesized.
