Abstract
The textile industry is responsible for producing a significant amount of global CO2 emission, which is the biggest contributor to global warming and climate change. Researchers have focused on reducing greenhouse gas emission by recycling textile materials rather than producing new fibers through circular economy approaches. Using recycled fibers or blending new fibers with recycled fibers is becoming an essential approach to strike a balance between textile quality and sustainability. In this study, swimwear fabrics made of 100% polyester, and 50% polyester-50% recycled polyester fiber were investigated in terms of their performance properties including color fastness, abrasion resistance, and seam strength. This study will provide a better understanding of the effect of the polyester fiber and recycled polyester fiber combination on the performance/quality properties of swimwear fabrics.
