New Dimensions of Various Interlock Knitted Derivatives

ABSTRACT

This study investigated the derivatives of interlock knitted structures by changing stitch type, location, and their percentage (%) on different performance properties. In the current study, 11 different interlock knit structures were developed by using multiple combinations of knit, tuck, and miss stitches and different types of testing, i.e., physical, mechanical, thermo-physiological comfort, tactile comfort, and dimensional properties, were performed and investigated. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) was performed to determine the statistical significance of structure on the properties. Based on the results, it was concluded that stitch type, percentage, and location have a prominent influence on the abovementioned properties of knit fabrics, which is also elaborated by interaction plots. The present research used a multi-response optimization technique, i.e., principal component analysis (PCA), to identify the best structure for industrial applications like uniforms, based on the optimization of abovementioned properties. Based on the results, it was suggested that a sample with an interlock cross relief structure was found to be the best in all aspects among all samples, followed by interlock pique and double tuck, which were ranked as 2nd and 3rd, respectively. This paper highlights the possible application of different interlock knitted structures according to end use for manufacturers.

摘要

本研究通过改变针脚类型、位置及其百分比（%）对不同性能的影响，研究了互锁针织结构的衍生物. 在目前的研究中，通过使用编织、收褶和漏针的多种组合，开发了11种不同的互锁编织结构，并进行了不同类型的测试，即物理、机械、热生理舒适性、触觉舒适性和尺寸特性，并对其进行了研究. 进行方差分析（ANOVA）以确定结构对性质的统计显著性. 结果表明，针脚类型、针脚百分比和针脚位置对针织物的上述性能有显著影响，并通过相互作用图进行了阐述. 本研究使用了一种多响应优化技术，即. 基于上述性能的优化，主成分分析（PCA）可确定制服等工业应用的最佳结构. 结果表明，在所有样品中，具有互锁交叉浮雕结构的样品在各个方面都是最好的，其次是互锁凸起和双褶分别排名第二和第三. 本文强调了制造商根据最终用途使用不同互锁针织结构的可能应用.
