Abstract

A carpet is a textile floor covering made comprised of the top layer of a pile that is linked to a support. A pile was historically composed of wool, but synthetic fibres like as polypropylene, nylon, or polyester, which are less expensive than wool, have become popular during the twentieth century. Carpet tiles and broadloom are the most often utilised Textile covering floorings because to excellent qualities such as elasticity and dimensional stability. So, initially, we'll discuss carpet fibre structure and features, followed by carpet yarn and the printing processes that occur on it, with a focus on the inkjet printing technique.
