Effect of Different Crushed Stone on Denim & Knit Fabric to Ensure Sustainability

Abstract

A type of construction aggregate known as crushed stone or angular rock is typically created by mining a suitable rock deposit and then using crushers to reduce the removed rock to the required size. To comply with future sustainability, this study aims to reuse crushed stone in a factory that washes clothing. The research team therefore used crushed stone from Bangladesh (gathered from a washing factory). Crushed stone is recognized globally in 13 (Thirteen) grades. The research team chose purposes 2, 3, and 5 for the final test due to the availability and capacity limitations of washing machine facilities in factories. The variation between the fabric compositions after and before washing was addressed in this study using 06 (six) different types of denim fabric. The results of a test for color fastness to washing, rubbing, perspiration, and a shade variation were conducted after the sample denim fabrics had been cleaned. An ISO standard is followed for every washing machine test. For industrial use, the results were adequate. The research team has, at the end, provided buyers, factory owners, and future crushed stone businessmen with some recommendations that will guarantee sustainability in factories.
