Abstract
The
denim has an important place in textile sector due to its comfortable,
fashionable, durable and affordable properties. Denim sector has to constantly
evolve in order to meet varying consumer expectations. In this study, dual-core multi-twist slub yarns have been developed to give both
functional and visual effects to denim fabrics. Effects of core (elastomultiester and elastane) draft ratios on unevenness,
hairiness, tenacity and breaking elongation properties of these yarns were
investigated. As a result of the study, it was found that the
EME (Elastomultiester-I. core) draft values have a statistically significant
effect on the unevenness and breaking elongation values of the dual-core slub
yarns; the elastane (II. core) draft values have also a statistically
significant effect on hairiness and breaking elongation values of yarns.
