The Properties of the Bamboo Rib Fabric

Abstract:

In order to understand the fabric properties of the bamboo, 1×1 rib fabrics were woven in knitting machine separately using entire bamboo yarns in 3 shares, cotton 2 and bamboo 1 yarns, and entire cotton yarns in 3 shares. The fabric properties were tested and compared with each other in this paper. The results show that, the bamboo rib fabric has a better drapability, rigidity and abrasion resistance than the cotton fabric, but its bursting strength and wrinkle recovery ability are worse.
