A novel quantification tool for elastane in textiles using thermal treatment
Polymer Testing, 2023 Elastane, also known as spandex, is a synthetic polymer fibre based on polyurethane, which is present in low amounts in numerous textile products. It is used frequently particularly in sportswear and underwear, because of its stretchability and body ...

Selective Elastane Removal Using DMSO–DBN Under Moderate Temperatures: From Pure Filaments to Cotton/Polyester Blends [PDF]
PolymersSelective removal of elastane from textile blends is a critical factor for fibre-to-fibre recycling, since even low elastane content compromises the mechanical shredding efficiency, contaminates recycled streams, and limits the spinnability of recovered ...

Studying the influence of common wet processes on the quality of 1 × 1 rib cotton/elastane knitted fabrics [PDF]
Journal of Engineered Fibers and Fabrics, 2022 This research studied the influence of common wet processes (i.e. bleaching, dyeing, or softening) on the quality of 1 × 1 rib cotton/elastane knitted fabrics. The changes in their structural (thickness, weight, and stitch density) parameters, mechanical
