Abstract

Day by day, the demand and popularity of denim have increased. With the increase in demand for denim, washing has also increased. When we washed a piece of denim fabric, then its properties also changed. The properties are tensile strength, GSM, color fading, stiffness, abrasion resistance, moisture regain, etc. In this study, we conduct different washing processes on denim fabric such are Stonewash, Caustic wash, Acid wash, Normal wash, Pigment wash, Sandblasting, and Super whitewash. After washing, the properties of denim fabric have been analyzed especially strength. The tear and tensile strength were measured by ISO standard. From the above washing method, Normal & pigment wash showed good strength properties comparing with others.

Highlights

  • Denim is an extremely strong, stiff, and hard-wearing weaved fabric

  • The Tear Strength Test is done after various washing effects on fabrics Table 2

  • Elmendorf’s method is used in the test and this test is applied to the denim fabrics

Summary

Introduction

Denim is an extremely strong, stiff, and hard-wearing weaved fabric. Denim is a cotton and twill fabric that uses colored warp and white weft yarn and used for Jeans, work clothes, and casual wear [1] [2] [3]. In Bangladesh, the washing of clothes has increased considerably lately It is one of the most important processes in the textile industry. The equipment used to change the look, comfort, and fashion of the apparel is readily available [11] [12]. Some of these textile washing methods were created for denim clothing, but are commonly used for a wide range of styles of clothing. The effect of varied washing methods on the strength of denim goods is chosen for this work
