“…However, hairiness is a factor that cannot be directly regulated. Actually, producers improved pilling performance by optimizing factors including fibers (morphology, 3 modulus, 4 friction coefficient, 5 etc. ), yarns (spinning method, 6 yarn twist, 7 yarn count, 8 etc.)…”

Aiming at the classic problem of pilling of polyester-cotton blended woven fabrics, pilling grades were evaluated by image analysis method to study the effects of yarn twist, spinning method, warp, and weft density, fabric cover factor and fabric singeing on pilling performance. The length and density distribution of fabric hairiness was studied by Nano measurer software. The respective roles of polyester and cotton fibers were studied by using scanning electron microscope and quantitative chemical analysis method. The experimental results showed that the factors for the best anti-pilling fabric are that yarn twist is 950 N/m, the spinning method is siro-compact spinning, warp density is 394 N/10cm, weft density is 265 N/10cm, fabric cover factor is 103.9%, and fabric should be singed. Cotton hairiness is fractured, which is wrapped by polyester hairiness to form pills. The frequency distribution of hairiness is approximately given by Gauss distribution. Mass ratio of polyester and cotton hairiness is nearly 66%/34%.

“…The yarns' internal structure factors including fibre blend proportions, yarn twist, radial distribution of the two components relative to the yarns axis are influencing factors for the acrylic yarn properties. There are some early studies in the literature related to investigation of acrylic and/or acrylic blend yarn production parameters as well as their effects on yarn and fabric properties [1,5,[7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23]. High-bulk acrylic yarns (steamed and dyed) with different shrinkable fibre blending ratios were produced in one of the study where the effect of blending ratios of relax and unrelaxed tows on yarn shrinkage, yarn specific volume and yarn tensile properties were evaluated.…”

“…Non-shrinkable and shrinkable (high bulk) acrylic fibres with different initial modulus were used with different percentages in order to produce five kinds of yarns and twill woven fabrics made of those yarns. Results of pilling test performed on the sample indicated that by increasing the percentage of nonshrinkable (regular) fibres with high initial modulus, fibres had tendency to leave the yarn structure which resulted with higher pilling [9]. Wool and acrylic blended worsted yarns with a linear density of 32 tex (31 Nm) and twist level of 414 tpm at different blend ratios (75/25, 50/50 and 25/75) were evaluated in another study.…”

High bulk acrylic yarns having relax and unrelax fibre blends with varying ratios are commonly used for knitted fabrics. Within acrylic yarn production, bulking process parameters and blending ratio of relax and unrelax acrylic fiber have considerable effect on the desired yarn volume as well as on optimum yarn properties. This study aimed to investigate the effect of ply twist (tpm), bulking temperature (°C) and bulking machine velocity (m/sec) on acrylic yarn properties as well as on supreme knitted fabric properties from those yarns where a constant blend ratio of relax/unrelax acrylic fibre blends were utilized. For this purpose, three different ply twist (185, 215 and 245 tpm) and bulking machine velocity of three levels (550, 650 and 750 m/sec) were selected. Bulking process was achieved at 110 and 130 °C. Tenacity, elongation, crimp contraction and shrinkage properties of untreated acrylic yarns and of acrylic yarns treated with bulking process were evaluated. Additionally, weft knitted fabrics from those yarns were produced at constant production parameters. Bursting strength, air permeability and pilling properties of acrylic knitted fabrics were compared. In order to obtain the optimum ply twist, bulking temperature and bulking machine velocity regarding to desired yarn and fabric properties, numerical optimization method was used at 5% significance level. According to the test results; it was concluded that ply twist, bulking temperature and bulking machine velocity had significant effect on yarn shrinkage. In addition, interaction of ply twist and bulking temperature was found to be an influential factor on bursting strength, bursting distention and air permeability properties. As a consequence, desirability ratio with the value of 57.2% could be provided for the fabrics with the acrylic yarns produced at 185 tpm ply twist with 614 m/sec bulking machine velocity at 130 °C bulking temperature.

“…The fiber is usually formed through wet spinning process with polymer materials as auxiliary agent or just pure protein solution. The introduction of protein to other fibers brings better silk-like hand feel [13,14]. The serviceability problem of flame-retardant viscose fiber may be possible to be solved by adding protein content to spinning solution with flame-retardant, it is also expected to improve the mechanical performance and offer better hand feel [15].…”

A new flame-retardant protein viscose fiber with safely wearing performance has been prepared through blending protein solution, flame retardant (hexaphenoxycyclotriphosphazene) and viscose spinning solution, in which wool protein was used and added to spinning solution on the basis of 16% flame retardant, and the properties of the fiber were investigated. The product has more compact structure inside the fiber and evenly scattered small pores on the surface. Flame-retardant protein viscose fiber can reach the flame-retardant standard both before and after 30 times wash test, and the mechanical strength of the fiber was also improved. The introduction of hexaphenoxycyclotriphosphazene lowered the primary decomposition temperature of viscose fiber, reduced its weight loss. The flame-retardancy of the fiber can be improved by the introduction of protein. In thermal processes, the major product of thermal decomposition was CO2, no hazardous and noxious gases were released. Due to the introduction of protein, moisture regain of the fiber is a little lower than that of viscose fiber, but higher than flame-retardant viscose fiber. Warmth retention property was also improved. Friction coefficient of the product is lower than that of flame-retardant viscose fiber. Bulking intensity was increased, which is better than that of viscose fiber.
