Abstract
In previous methods the fabric surface has been modified in waveform by special treatments such as overfeed of fabric and stabilizing of waves. In this work, a new method is developed for producing the fabric with waveform surface by using hybrid cotton/high-shrink polyester yarn. For this purpose, various hybrid yarns were produced by different methods and woven fabrics of plain and twill were constructed from all of the hybrid yarn sampled. Heat-treatment process was applied on samples to create waveform appearance on the fabric surface. Appearance and mechanical properties of the yarn samples and fabrics were analysed. The results showed that fabrics made from yarn samples of core spinning and twisting methods have more strength along the warp direction, while fabrics made from yarn samples of the commingling method present less strength along the weft direction. Heat treatment increases thickness of fabric in all of samples. Apparent waves of fabric surface are more uniform with regard to yarn samples of twisting and commingling methods, respectively.
