Abstract
The current study evaluates the effect of fiber composition in three-thread fleece fabrics if all other knitting and processing conditions remain constant. Four samples of three-thread fleece fabrics were produced on the same fleece machine using the same yarn count and stitch length for face, binding, and fleecy yarns. Some important parameters, namely width, areal density, pilling resistance, bursting strength, and dimensional stability, were characterized. Changes mainly appeared due to the compositional alteration of cotton, viscose, and polyester content in the yarns. The results showed that the fiber composition of the finished samples of three-thread fleece fabrics significantly influenced all parameters studied, except for dimensional stability.
