The measurement of plain weft-knitted fabric stiffness

open access: yesMeasurement Science and Technology, 2012
A new instrument and a test method are presented in this paper that can evaluate the stiffness of plain weft-knitted fabrics. The WIRA Instrumentation Tester can measure torsion data for various flexible fibre assemblies whilst they are being twisted. The torsional properties of two types of fabrics, namely nonwoven and knitted fabrics, were analyzed ...

Upgradation of Waste Dyed Fiber Through Production of Upcycled Rotor‐Spun Yarn: Enhancing Sustainability in Textiles

open access: yesCleanMat, Volume 3, Issue 2, Page 99-110, June 2026.
This research is about development of upcycled yarn from textile waste. The results demonstrate that RDFW can be successfully incorporated into yarn production, maintaining comparable tensile strength and uniformity, while reducing waste and resource consumption also save up to 22,000 L of water and 1.2 kg of CO2 per kilogram of cotton.
