Ghada Abdalla Elkholy

Abstract: Requirements of children & #039, s wears Soft, comfortable, hairiness, non-flammable, Lightweight, underclothes should be made of organic fibers, allow quick transmission of sweat from skin to environment. Bamboo is an eco-friendly and multifunctional plant. And bamboo clothing is taking share in the textile market. In this study we will conduct a comprehensive experiment of the effect of the blend-ratio of bamboo fabric on the durability and its clothing comfort of single jersey knitted fabrics composed of them. bamboo fabric blends of the two fabrics (7030 bamboo viscose, 955 bamboo spandex). Each of the yarns so produced was converted to single jersey knitted fabrics. The relative durability and its clothing properties of the fabrics were observed to increase with increase of bamboo fiber percentage. Statistical analysis also indicates that the results are significant for properties of tested fabrics like, weight, thickness, abrasion resistance, stiffness, hairiness, wettability and properties of sewing clothes made of tested fabrics like seam pucker, seam thickness and Seam Type Effects in garment.

Keywords: Children's wears, bamboo fabric, properties of fabric, seam pucker, seam thickness.
