Abstract

Nowadays, velvet fabrics are widely used in upper clothing, curtains and especially upholsteries. One of the most important problems encountered in them is the distancing of the piles from the surface of the fabric and the other is discoloration over time. In addition to the fabric properties, yarn and fiber properties also affect this situation.

In this article, the effect of fabric abrasion on the production parameters was investigated in face to face warp velvet fabrics. The abrasion resistance of 100% cotton (10, 15, and 20 thousand rpm (rotation per minute)) and 100% polyester (30, 45, and 60 thousand rpm (rotation per minute)) velvet fabrics has been tested. The fabrics were produced using 3 different weft yarn counts (150, 300, and 450 deniers for polyester and 6, 12, and 20 Ne for cotton), 3 different weft densities (20, 22, and 24 picks/cm for polyester and 11, 13, and 15 picks/cm for cotton), 3 different pile heights (2, 3, and 4 cm) and two different pile connection types (V and W), and the abrasion of the fabrics was tested with a Martindale device. The results were analyzed.

In addition, The effects of production parameters on fabric color were investigated in face to face warp velvet fabrics. Cotton fabrics were dyed with reactive blue, yellow and red, while polyester fabrics were dyed with disperse blue, yellow and red. Color properties and gloss have been tested and the results were analyzed.
According to the test results, the increase in weft yarn count (increasing denier/decreasing Ne) causes an increase in abrasion resistance, while the increase in pile height reduces the abrasion resistance. The W bonded fabrics were found to be more resistant to abrasion than the V bonded fabrics. The color properties of the fabrics produced were tested in spectrophotometer test devices and the effects of production parameters were analyzed. It was determined that deep colors such as blue and red have an effect on color properties, while light colors such as raw fabric and yellow velvet fabric do not have a significant effect. It was also detected that raw and yellow velvet fabrics have more gloss than blue and red velvet fabrics.
