Abstract

This article describes the ideal conditions for heat-fixing a cotton-lycra-based fabric. Indeed, the heat setting process has an impact on the technical parameters of the fabrics, such as tensile strength, initiated tearing, elasticity and remanence. Knowing that fabrics containing lycras are delicate in terms of dimensional stability, the interest of this article is to contribute to the control of heat setting parameters with the aim of having optimal dimensional stability of fabrics. To do this, we considered 3 types of fabrics containing elastanes with different composition. From the tests and tests carried out, we obtained the ideal parameter values (including temperature and speed) for the heat fixing of fabrics.
