Abstract
Artificial neural network (ANN) model was used for predicting colour properties of 100% cotton denim fabrics, including colour yield (in terms of K/S value) and CIE L*, a*, b*, C*, and h° values, under the influence of cellulase treatment with various combinations of cellulase processing parameters. Variables examined in the ANN model included treatment temperature, treatment time, pH, mechanical agitation, and fabric yarn twist level. The ANN model was compared with a linear regression model where the ANN model produced superior results in the prediction of colour properties of cellulase-treated 100% cotton denim fabrics. The relative importance of the examined factors influencing colour properties was also investigated. The analysis revealed that cellulase treatment processing parameters played an important role in affecting the colour properties of the treated 100% denim cotton fabrics.
Highlights
Denim jeans provide durability and vintage look for fashionable appearance which is the reason why they are welcomed by most people over the world
In the case of the textile industry, artificial neural network (ANN) model is mainly used in yarn and fabric technologies [6,7,8,9,10]; no comprehensive ANN model has been used for predicting colour properties of 100% cotton denim material after cellulase treatment
In order to evaluate the effect of ANN model, the MAE, MSE
Summary
Denim jeans provide durability and vintage look for fashionable appearance which is the reason why they are welcomed by most people over the world. Conventional technologies involve creating designs by fading the colour of fabric by making the use of enzymatic treatment and bleach washing. Among these technologies, enzymatic treatment using cellulase is a commonly used method to achieve good colour fading effect with good fabric softness for 100% cotton denim fabrics. Enzymatic treatment using cellulase is a commonly used method to achieve good colour fading effect with good fabric softness for 100% cotton denim fabrics This technology could produce the desirable colour effects, there are a number side effects such as (i) difficulty in application, (ii) time consuming in processing, (iii) difficulty in creating standard and reproducible designs, (iv) effect cannot be applied to all textile surfaces, and (v) loss of quality if the process is not carefully controlled [1, 2]. Values of 100% cotton denim fabrics under the influence of cellulase treatment with the consideration of variables such as treatment temperature, treatment time, pH, mechanical agitation, and fabric yarn twist level
