Experimental investigation of the comfort properties of bed sheet produced from weft knitted

This Studying , we attempt to enhance the comfort properties of bed sheet fabrics produced using the weft knitting method. Specifically, the research problem is to address how to improve various properties of bed sheet fabrics through the weft knitting process, and determine the optimal structural weft knitting pattern suitable for bed sheet production. Objectives Study the production of bed sheet fabrics using weft knitting for properties such as weight, thickness, bursting strength, air permeability, water vapor permeability, pilling, and anti-static electricity resistance. Evaluate the distinctive properties provided by knitted fabrics, such as softness and elasticity. Achieve optimal performance of bed sheets through improved comfort, functional performance, and use efficiency properties. Assumptions the research assumes that: Weft knitting will enhance the comfort properties of bed sheet fabrics, particularly in terms of air permeability and water vapor permeability. Weft knitting will improve functional performance requirements like structural integrity, fabric thickness, and fabric weight. Weft knitting will enhance use efficiency properties including pilling resistance, bursting strength, and anti-static electricity resistance. Material and Production Parameters Material: 30/1 E Cotton, Production Method: Circular weft knitting, Knitted Structure Options: Single jersey, rib 1x1, derby rib, interlock, Machine Gauge: 20 needles/inch. Research Methodology Analytical experimental approach involving: Conducting tests to measure various fabric properties. Statistical analysis of test results.  Graphical presentation of findings. Key Results Weight and Thickness: Derby rib exhibited the highest weight and thickness, followed by rib, interlock, and jersey. Bursting Resistance: Interlock demonstrated the highest bursting resistance, followed by derby rib, rib, and jersey. Air Permeability: Jersey showed the highest air permeability, followed by interlock, rib, and derby rib. Water Vapor Permeability: Derby rib showed the highest water vapor permeability, followed by rib, jersey, and interlock. Pilling: Jersey, rib, and interlock performed equally well in pilling resistance, while derby rib showed lower performance. Anti-Static Electricity Resistance: Interlock demonstrated; properties.
