Abstract
The effect of fabric tightness (K) and relaxation treatment on the dimensional parameters (kc; , kw;, ks; =kc; ×kw; and kr; =kc; /kw; ) and the ratio t/l for plain-jersey fabrics is investigated experimentally, using plied yarn of nylon multiple filament, that of cotton yarn, and paralleled cotton yarn.For coarse nylon plain-jersey fabrics, the dimensional parameters are independent of the fabric tightness and the method of relaxation treatment used. The ratio t/l is dependent on the fabric tightness, and independent of the method of relaxation treatment used.For cotton plain-jersey fabrics knitted of plied yarns, the dimensional parameters and the ratio t/l are dependent on the fabric tightness and the method of relaxation treatment used. For these knitted of paralleled yarns, kr is dependent on the fabric tightness, and kc; , kw; , ks; and the ratio t/l are dependent on the fabric tightness and the method of relaxation treatment used.
