Abstract
Manufacturers are trying to improve product specifications as current developments in textile engineering and consumer expectations increase. In this context, studies on natural fibres in terms of sustainability and synthetic fibres in terms of product performance have increased. The materials and production methods for manufacturing hollow yarns, which improve product properties by reducing the density in the internal structure of the yarns, are attracting attention in this context. This study investigates the effects of raw material and yarn structure on the properties of yarns and fabrics. Core-spun yarns were produced in a ring-spinning system to obtain hollow structures for the design of sock fabrics. Environmentally friendly polymer-based soluble filament yarns were used instead of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) as the core and cotton and blends of bamboo/cotton and cotton/viscose as the sheath material. After the fabric was produced, yarns with different packing densities were obtained by removing the core material. Some fabric properties, especially water absorbency, the main reason for producing socks with yarns having different packing densities, were evaluated by capillary rise and moisture management tests. The bursting strength of terry fabrics was not affected by LPD yarns in the fabric, while air permeability and hydrophilicity were positively affected. Therefore, a loose and porous yarn structure improves the properties of the terry fabrics, especially for socks.
