In this study, the performance and structural properties of single jersey fabrics are investigated. The yarns, Ne 30/1 and 20/1 which are commonly used in production of these fabrics in Turkey, made of a 100% cotton open-end spun yarns manufactured under the same conditions using the same fibres. The fibre characteristics evaluated by HVI-900, a fibre testing system, are given in the material section of the paper. The performance and structural properties were determined as the fabric weight, the dimensional stability and other structural parameters, spirality, bursting strength, and pilling tendency. It was aimed to perform the test in two ways. Testing the fabrics before any treatments just as knitted and taken them up from the machine. In the second case, they were tested after the sanforization process applied on the same fabrics.
For the purpose of study, six single jersey fabrics have been produced using Ne 30/1 and five fabrics for Ne 20/1 with different fabric weights, that the weight can preliminary adjustable by setting the yarn length of loops in knitted structures on the circular knitting machine used, a Monarch type 22 fine and 32” diameter with positive feed systems. The overall results obtained from these tests have been compared and discussions evaluated are given in the end of the paper.
