“…When force is applied to a yarn, it gets distributed among its constituent fibers, which underscores the importance of yarn elongation as well. The elongation of the yarn is interconnected to the extension of individual fibers along with the alignment and cohesion among the fibers within the yarn structure [ 25 ]. Since the recycled fibers consist of numerous short fibers, they cannot integrate well with the yarn structure which leads to easy detachment of fibers when force is applied, ultimately causing lower yarn elongation.…”

“…Compact spinning is the redesigning of the conventional ring spinning where the spinning triangle was eliminated. This results in the optimum translation of fiber properties into the yarn with significant enhancements in different yarn qualities like lower hairiness and imperfection, higher evenness and strength, better resistance to abrasion, and a lower tendency of pilling [ 20 , [24] , [25] , [26] , [27] ].

The scope of this study was to investigate the effect of yarn structure and material type on the thermal and mechanical comfort properties of plain knitted fabrics. A new type of elastic core spun yarn which is called tri-core yarn was introduced. The other yarn structures used were single-core/T400, single-core/lycra, dual-core yarn, and ring-spun yarn. The five types of yarn structure were produced with three material types (100% cotton, blended cotton/modal (50/50%), and blended cotton/tencel (50/50%)) at the same yarn count (10 Ne). Knitted fabrics with a single jersey structure were produced from yarn samples. The mechanical comfort properties including fabric modulus and recovery in wale and course directions were measured. Thermal comfort including air permeability, water vapor permeability, thermal conductivity, and thermal absorptivity were also measured. Full factorial analysis was performed on the test results. It was concluded from the factorial analysis that yarn structure, material type, and two-way interaction had a significant influence on mechanical and thermal comfort except for thermal conductivity, the significance of the material type was exactly P = 0.05. It was concluded that knitted fabric produced from tri-core in the case of blended cotton/tencel obtained the better modulus and elastic recovery in both directions in wales and courses that largely improved the mechanical comfort.
“…As sheath fiber, either cotton or a blend of cotton with synthetic fibers usually polyester is used. The cotton fibers are blended with polyester fibers to enhance the comfort level associated with the high absorbency and feel of the cotton fibers [ 5 ]. The use of core-spun elastane yarn containing stretchable elastane filament within the core of the yarn gives stretchability to the stretch fabrics [ 6 , 7 ].…”
