Dimensional and physical properties of 3-D fabrics produced on the flat knitting machines

The dimensional and physical properties of 3-D fabrics product'd using diff erent loop lengths and yarn combinations of cotton and polyester on electronic flat knit ting machines .' . > ,en studied. It is observed that the yarn combination, tightness and washing treatment aff ect the fabric properties. In addition, while the tightness of fabric in creases or when the samples are washed, the course spac ing, wale spa cing, weight and thickness of the fabric in crease and the air permeab il ity decreases.
