Evaluation of Enzyme Wash on Denim Fabric by Varying Conditions and
Chemical Composition
- Abstract: Publication year: 2023Source: International Journal of Textile Science, Volume 12, Number 1Md. Mahbubur Rahman, Md. Mazharul Helal, Suraiya Ireen, Md. Mutasim Uddin, Dr. Jagannath BiswasJeans are regarded as an elegant casual attire for both men and women. Denim jeans come in a wide variety of styles, yet they are always constructed of the same material. Denim fabrics are cleaned to give them a distinctive look, feel, and style. Denim washing is a cosmetic procedure that improves a fabric's suppleness and comfort. Denim cloth can be washed with a variety of enzymes. Denim finishers are currently employing cellulase enzyme to speed up the abrasion process. Several kilograms of stones can be replaced with a tiny amount of enzyme. The amount of enzyme used has an effect on the characteristics of the denim fabric. Cellulase operates on the fabric surface and breaks it down, smoothing it out. This aids in the prevention of pill formation. This study examines denim washing process improvements from three perspectives: product quality, process quality, and pollution. Garment quality must be verified against stated and unstated needs when washing to improve customer satisfaction. Cost reduction, productivity enhancement, waste reduction, and resource optimization are all aspects that influence process quality. Enzyme washing is better for the environment than using chemicals to wash garments. As enzymes are biodegradable, they break down rather than staying in the water system. After enzyme washing, denim properties such as tensile strength, stiffness, drape, and color change were examined.
Effect of Machine Parameters on Starting Mark in Textiles Denim Weaving
Process
- Abstract: Publication year: 2023Source: International Journal of Textile Science, Volume 12, Number 1Md. Enamul Haque, Rajib Kabiraj, Md. Mostafa Khan, Md. Suja Uddin Kaiser, Md. Bokthier RahmanFabric quality is important from the view of customer satisfaction. About 90% of the fabric defects in the grey fabric originate during weaving in the loom shed. Denim fabric is highly sensitive for defects, mainly like starting marks, broken pick, snarl and missing end etc. One of the most significant weaving-related flaws in woven cloth is the starting mark. This Starting mark, for which fabric quality degrades, is affected by a number of factors and circumstances. This study mainly emphasized on the control of fabric defects in denim weaving at weaving stage by conducting the trials on the respective machine settings of air-jet loom. In this work the appropriate factors for the starting mark in the different construction of the fabric have been investigated and it also has been observed that mechanical settings affect strongly on this starting mark than electrical settings. Trial results show significant reduction of fabric defects and also rejection percentage.

Covid-19 and Post Covid-19 Impact on Knit and Woven Ready-Made Garment
Industry of Bangladesh
- Abstract: Publication year: 2022Source: International Journal of Textile Science, Volume 11, Number 2Nadvi Mamun Pritha, Mayesha Maliha, Sushama Saha Swati, Nusrath Jahan Khanam, Tanzima Zoha ChowdhuryThe Covid-19 pandemic is the deadliest in recorded history and has altered the economic landscape of numerous nations. Bangladesh, the world's second-largest exporter of ready-to-wear clothing, saw its fiscal GDP fall 2.7% between FY 2019 and FY 2020.This analytical study intends to investigate the effect of Covid-19 on Bangladesh's knit and weaved industries using primary and secondary data gathered from various sources.This study discovered that the export tendency would likely increase if the pandemic didn't happen. The woven business has been more severely impacted than the knit industry by the pandemic's destructive effects. It took woven industries longer than knit businesses to get back to their pre-Covid-19 export growth rates, even in the post-Covid-19 era. Additionally, this pandemic disrupted the textile supply chain and raised the cost of cotton yarn. This study also sheds light on the shifting global market share of ready-to-wear textiles.
Epic Environmental Pollution in Little Drops: The Case of Small-Holder
Textile Producers in Ghana
- Abstract: Publication year: 2022Source: International Journal of Textile Science, Volume 11, Number 2Richard Acquaye, Eric Bruce-Amartey Jnr., Kow Eduam GharteyThis study investigates small-holder textile producers regarding their indiscriminate disposal of waste effluent and the potential danger to humans, aquatic life and the environment. Small-holder textile producers are key stakeholders in textile production in Ghana and they contribute significantly toward job creation and income for the economy. Their activities include but are not limited to yarn dyeing, weaving, batik production, stamping, screen printing, tie-dye and tritik production. Because they are small-scale producers, the environmental protection agency of Ghana does not monitor and control how they dispose of waste dyes and chemicals after usage. The waste dyes and chemicals are thrown into domestic drains, gutters and the immediate surrounding of the workshop or production space. This result in the effluent going downstream with heavy metals which cause water and environmental pollution that affects fish, farming activities and other aquatic life. Case study, a subset of descriptive research was used as data came mainly from books, archives, state institutions and direct observation at small-scale textile production sites. Questionnaires and observation were the main research tools used to assemble the relevant data. This study anticipates that if such negative practices are not checked, the consequences to the environment and general quality of life would be dire in the foreseeable future. As a condition subsequent, the researchers are partnering with stakeholders to assist their transition from unsafe handling of chemicals to safer and healthier disposal of waste chemicals. The study proposes the sedimentation approach to the disposal of liquid waste as a stop-gap measure before a more sustainable management approach is developed in the foreseeable future.

Assessment of the Impact of Weaving Speed and Warp Beam Tension on the
Physical Properties of 1/1 Rib-Stop Plain Fabric
- Abstract: Publication year: 2022Source: International Journal of Textile Science, Volume 11, Number 1Fahmida Faiza Fahmi, Sanjida Sultana, Nadvi Mamun Pritha, Mahfuza PervinMaintenance of adequate fabric width is a mandatory factor of consideration during the weaving process. The weaving process can be cost-effective if the fabric's predetermined width can obtain by using a sufficient amount of yarn. Assurance of fabric production with a predetermined amount of raw material and beneficiary functional properties can make the weaving process effective. Weaving is the process of cloth making with the mechanism of yarns interlacement which occurs in looms. Weaving speed and warp beam tension variation can directly impact the fabric width. The width of newly weaved fabric can vary significantly with the diversity in weaving speed. Increasing warp yarn tension will reduce the bending property and make the yarns straighter. As a result, the interlacement property becomes interrupted, and the EPI of the fabric will increase slightly. In this scenario, more warp yarns are necessary to construct a fabric with a predetermined width. Some physical properties of fabric also vary by considering these factors. The comfortability of fabric can diversify widely with changing warp beam tension and weaving speed. At higher loom speed, the interlacement nature of the fabric changes and the moisture absorption will also deviate. This property directly impacts the comfortability of the fabric. So assessing the level of diversity in fabric properties is an essential factor of consideration to obtain the required performance. This assessment evaluates the physical properties of the 1/1 rib-stop plain fabric sample according to the diversification of weaving speed and warp beam tension. In this assessment, the variation of some fabric properties will measure by changing the weaving principles in four samples of similar construction. Calculating various measurements like warp contraction%, crimp%, cover factor, and GSM will assess the deviation of results. The crimp% impacts the comfort performance, whereas the cover factor analyses the cost-effectiveness by detecting the requirement of yarns to produce a fabric. GSM of fabric deals with the weight of fabric samples, and warp contraction% determines the most suitable condition to perform the weaving procedure. This analysis will help the technical professionals set the standard weaving process to obtain their mandated width and physical properties cost-effectively.

- Abstract: Publication year: 2022Source: International Journal of Textile Science, Volume 11, Number 1Sanjida Sultana, Fahmida Faiza Fahmi, Afsana Ferdous, Mahfuza Pervin, Tanzima Zoha Chowdhury, Mayesha MalihaCoir fibre obtained from the husk of the coconut is a natural fibre. It is a cellulosic fibre. Coconut is available in tropical regions. Depending on the age of the coconut, this fibre is divided into two categories. One of them is Brown fibre which is obtained from matured coconut and another one is White fibre which is obtained from immature coconut. In this paper the manufacturing process, structure, cross-sectional diagram, their properties and uses were reviewed. It is very important that now a day, besides many other uses, coir fibre has very important use in reinforcement in different sections in different ways.
Sensitivity Analysis of Medium & High Energy Disperse Dyes in
Polyester Dyeing
- Abstract: Publication year: 2021Source: International Journal of Textile Science, Volume 10, Number 2Faridul Islam Ovi, Shihab MahmudDisperse dyes are very important for every textile industry in dyeing polyester fabrics. They are used for hydrophobic fiber like nylon or polyester because they give excellent shade during dyeing. Their dyeing mainly depends on time, temperature and PH. Depending on time and temperature, disperse dye shows different level of sensitivity because of their structure. For proving its sensitivity four types of dyes including two medium energy dyes and two high energy dyes was taken and standard time and temperature for both energy dyes were considered for carrying out the experiment. Dyeing was carried out with standard condition. The dyeing also carried out by varying the standard conditions (by changing Time and Temperature). The different colorimetric data (DE*) was produced by comparing standard shade and the resulting shades by using spectrophotometer. From the investigation it is clearly seen that disperse dyes shows significant sensitivity towards time and temperature at the time of little deviation from the standard time and temperature. Overall, medium energy disperse dyes represent more deviation from standard condition than high energy disperse dye when time and temperature changes.
