This paper presents an experimental study of the selected performance properties of 100% cotton terry fabrics. In this study, nine different constructions of terry fabrics are woven with Ne 12/1, Ne 16/1 and Ne 20/1 100% carded cotton ring spun weft yarns in three different weft densities. Fabric samples are subjected to 5 washing cycles before undergoing the tests; air permeability, resistance to pile loop extraction, bursting strength, tensile strength, tear strength, abrasion resistance, static water absorption and drying rate. Experimental results were analyzed using General Linear Model Analysis, Correlation Analysis and Paired-Samples T Test Analysis. According to results, weft yarn count is effective on air permeability, resistance to pile loop extraction, bursting strength, tensile strength, tear strength, mass loss ratio and static water absorption and weft density is effective on air permeability, resistance to pile loop extraction (15, 20 and 25 mm pulling distances), bursting strength, tensile strength, tear strength, mass loss ratio and remaining water ratio. The statistical evaluations demonstrate that repeated launderings also effect the performance properties of woven terry fabrics.
