“…Koo et al (2013) studied mechanical and chemical recycling processes and examined their effects on yarn properties such as tensile properties, thermal characteristics, hydrolysis and photodegradation [8]. Kostov et al (2013) established proper conditions for secondary polyethylene terephtalate (PET) fiber production. In the study, yarn linear density, breaking strength and elongation and thermal properties of the primary and secondary PET fibers were characterized [9].…”

In order to reduce the requirement of waste eliminating and environmental pollution, recycling seems to be a suitable solution. In this study, polyester fibers with three different number of filament and two fiber cross section form (round and plus) were spun from recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET) polymer and texturised on an industrial scale. rPET yarns were used as a weft yarn in woven fabric production. Fabric performance properties such as breaking, tearing and seam slippage resistance, weight, breaking elongation, abrasion resistance and air permeability were analysed and compared with that of virgin PET fabrics. As a result of this study, it was determined that virgin and rPET polymers provided almost similar fabric properties. Higher number of filaments gave lower fabric breaking elongation, seam strength, abrasion resistance and air permeability values while led to higher tearing strength. Except fabric weight and tensile properties, filament cross section had a significant affect on other studied fabric properties.

“…In the our earlier work [28] textile fibers were obtained from recycled PET and its mixtures with virgin PET at initial orientation of 18000-33000 %, rate of additional orientation drawing 3.5-6.5 times and temperature of thermal fixation 363-413 °. In order to clarify the conditions of formation of fibers based on recycled and virgin PET is important to know the rheological behavior of this polymers and mixtures thereof.…”

Different blends of virgin, recycled polyethyleneterephthalate (5-20 mass %) and their mixtures used for textile fibers were prepared. Their rheological characteristics were studied at temperatures 543, 548 and 553 K and shear stresses in the range from 6.2x10 3 to 14x10 3 Pa. Drawing the flow curves for the melts of the polymers studied using experimental data, it was found that they obeyed the power law at the three temperatures. A weak tendency of increase of the flow index was observed with the increase of temperature. The effects of two different stabilizers (Irganox 1076 and butylated hydroxytoluene BHT, 0.5 mass% vs. the polymer material) on the thermooxidative degradation were studied. The stabilizing ability of Irganox 1076 was found to be the better one since it increased viscosity from 50 to 100 Pa.s without any significant changes in polyethyleneterephthalate appearance. The influence of processing reiteration was studied for the individual polymers, as well as for their mixtures in different ratios.
