“…Although there was no significant difference between genotypes used in this study, the difference in thin places between harvest times was statistically significant. In contrast to our findings, Uyanık (2019) reported no relationship between thin places and yarn quality characteristics. However, the findings of Mathangadeera et al (2020) that yarns obtained from lowelongation samples have thin places, which are a type of yarn defect, are similar to our findings.…”

Cotton fibers are the most important raw material of the textile industry. Clean collection of cotton fibers increases the quality of textile products and the market prices. This study was conducted to investigate the effects of normal and late harvest period of different cotton varieties on cotton fiber and yarn properties. The quality properties of the fibers were determined with the HVI device, and the quality properties of the yarns obtained from the fibers were determined with the USTER TESTER device. The fiber quality properties such as fiber fineness (micronaire), fiber maturity, fiber length (UHML, mm), strength (g/tex), brightness/whiteness (Rd), and yarn quality properties such as yarn evenness (%), thin places, neps+200 (%) and hairiness were investigated in the study. The exposure of fibers to rain during the harvest period of 2018 caused a decrease in the quality properties. Inability of the plants to receive sufficient sunlight during the last physiological development period caused a decrease in photosynthesis rate. This negative situation negatively affected the physical quality properties of fiber and yarn. The results indicated that the physical quality properties of fibers and yarns obtained in 2019 were higher than those in 2018. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of late harvest period on fiber and yarn quality properties and thus on quality of textile products. In addition, the study was carried out to guide researchers who will conduct researchers on similar topics.

“…Polyester fiber is one of the most widely used fiber in technical and apparel application areas and contributes more than 75% share in world synthetic fiber manufacture (Aizenshtein, 2017;Uyanık, 2019). The most extensively recycled plastic in the world is recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET).…”

Purpose The most widely recycled plastic in the world is recycled polyethylene terephthalate (rPET). To minimize the environmental related issues associated with synthetic fibers, several researchers have explored the potential use of recycled polyester fibers in developing various technical textile products. This study aims to develop needle-punched nonwoven fabrics from recycled polyester fibers and investigate its suitability in oil spill cleanup process. Design/methodology/approach According to Box and Behnken factorial design, 15 different needle-punched nonwoven fabrics from recycled polyester fibers were prepared by changing the parameters, namely, needle punch density, needle penetration depth and fabric areal weight. Several featured parameters such as oil sorption, oil retention, oil sorption kinetics, wettability and reusability performance were systematically elucidated. Findings The maximum oil sorption of recycled nonwoven polyester is found to be 24.85 g/g and 20.58 g/g for crude oil and vegetable oil, respectively. The oil retention is about 93%–96% in case of crude oil, whereas 87%–91% in case of vegetable oil. Recycled polyester nonwoven possesses good hydrophobic–oleophilic properties with static contact angle of 138° against water, whereas 0° against crude oil and vegetable oil. The reusability test results indicate that recycled polyester nonwoven fabric can be used several times because of its reusability features. Originality/value There is no detailed study on the oil sorption features of needle-punched nonwoven fabrics developed from recycled polyester fibers. This study is expected to help in developing fabrics for oil spill cleanups.

“…The recycling process is going to play a pivotal role in economic growth. PET bottles are converted into yarn and cloth for producing the products such as T-shirts, long underwear, sweaters, winter coats, athletic shoes, luggage bags, upholstery materials, fibre fill, sleeping bags, industrial strapping sheet, automotive parts and new PET containers [23]. Textile waste are converted into nonwoven materials that will be used for various industrial products.…”

Increasing textile and clothing consumption resulted not only exhaustion of natural resources and virgin raw materials but also assimilation of textile material disposal from pre-consumer waste (i.e. various textile and clothing manufacturing activities) and post-consumer waste. Many environmental problems have been created by this pre-consumer and post-consumer waste generation. Adequate amount of measures has been taken by the government and standard organization to minimise the impact on environment by the textile manufacturing activities. Now a days, textile industries are striving to achieve zero waste generation by adopting various international standards and methods. But for the post-consumer waste generation issue, it is necessary for each and every consumer needs to understand and contribute for sustainable waste disposal. Hence, it is essential for everyone to know the existing sustainable concepts available to create sustainable environment. The main objective of the study is to examine the factors influencing textile and clothing disposal behaviour. The theory of disposal behaviour is related to consumer knowledge about textile product, environmental concern and waste management technique, namely Textile reuse and Textile recycle. Primary data was collected from 150 respondents through online questionnaires for this study. Statistical analysis such as correlation and regression were used with SPSS statistics. The research suggests that Apparel and Home textile product manufacturer should focus on creating consumer awareness on the possibility of reuse and recycle of the specific products along with the care label in order to achieve sustainable environment.
