DEVELOPMENT & RESEARCH ON CONSUMER PROPERTIES OF INTEGRATED TWO-LAYER WEFT KNITTED FABRIC FROM ECO-RAW MATERIALS

摘要

Nowadays a lot of people pay attention to various aspects that can preserve and improve their health and standard of living. Therefore, ecological knitwear of a functional purpose made of natural raw materials becomes popular The authors developed the structure and proposed the set factors for producing the integrated knitted fabric where hemp or nettle yarn will be used to form one of the layers in two-layer knitwear Such fabric may be used as a functional textile material for manufacturing the linen products of medical treatment and preventive care, in particular for the underwear of wounded servicemen during their treatment and rehabilitation. The new structure Is a two-layer fabric with forged connection of layers by main threads. Connecting forged yarn-overs In the fabric are arranged in staggered manner At places of connecting yarn-overs, blind holes are generated; they provide ventilation and rapid water removal from under the clothes. In the research, it is determined how the type of eco-raw material of one of the layers in integrated two-layer knitwear influences on the linear dimensions of knitwear, the relaxation properties, the level of capillarity and the change in the liquid level in time.
