Abstract

Studies in the field of elasticised woven fabrics made of Co/PBT yarns indicate great potential of PBT use in woven fabrics. Weaving experiments demonstrate that elasticity of Co/PBT fabrics gained after treatment depends not only on woven fabric settings but also on on-loom settings. Therefore, it is difficult to predict precisely the degree of shrinkage of the Co/PBT fabric after treatment. Six samples of woven fabrics were produced, three samples with the pretreated core spun Co/PBT weft, each in a different weave. Other three samples were woven with untreated core spun Co/PBT weft, in the same weaves and afterwards the samples were treated. The results indicated big differences between samples with pre-treated Co/PBT yarns in weft direction and samples treated after weaving.
