“…17,50 Cotton fiber contains approximately 47.1%-50.7% amorphous region . 7 During front-loading washing, cotton fabrics are wetted and water molecules bond with hydrophilic groups in the non-crystalline region. The rearrangement of the molecule chains in amorphous regions is easy, resulting in both easy deformation and deformation recovery .…”

In order to understand the impact of mechanical action on the wrinkling of cotton fabrics in a drum washer, fabric movement was observed and a movement index system was developed to characterize the textile motion. Results showed that spinning speed and wash load were the major factors influencing the smoothness of cotton fabrics, with p values of 0.000 and 0.032, respectively. The analysis of fabric movement illustrated that when the wash load increased, the free motion region decreased and the ratio of passive motion region increased, resulting in severe wrinkling of cotton fabric. A regression model was developed to characterize the relationship between fabric movement and smoothness. These findings help the understanding of the mechanism of wrinkling during a drum washer washing.

The purpose of this article is to examine the physical attributes of three distinct types of 100% cotton 1/1 plain woven fabrics. Fabrics such as canvas, poplin, and voile were considered. These textiles have a 60-inch width in common. Tear strength, tensile strength, weight (g/m2), cover factor, shrinkage, and air permeability, as well as Martindale pilling resistance and Ultra-Violet Transmission rate, were all investigated. The experiments are performing through the ASTM & AATCC Standards evaluate procedure, which is mentioned further down in this document. In comparison to poplin and voile, canvas cloth has superior weight and strength qualities and air transmission rate. The shrinkage values & ultra-violet factors of voile fabrics higher than the other two textiles. The air permeability of canvas fabrics is higher. The research is based on exercise, and the findings favor to the textile experts. Researchers will be able to pursue this field further because of this exploration.

“…1 Inadequate understanding of the process can lead to soil deposition and textile deformation. [2][3][4] The rotation of the inner drum during washing is to enhance the mass transfer within the textiles. 5 The inner drum rotation can be alternated between clockwise and anti-clockwise directions to increase the interaction of the fluids and textiles, resulting in soil loosening from the textiles.…”

Textile motion in a front-loading washer has been characterized via video capturing, and a processing system developed based on image geometric moment. Textile motion significantly contributes to the mass transfer of the wash solution in porous materials, particularly in the radial direction (perpendicular to the rotational axis of the inner drum). In this paper, the velocity profiles and residence time distributions of tracer textiles have been investigated to characterize the textile dynamics in a front-loading washer. The results show that the textile motion varies significantly with the water volume and rotational speed, and that the motion path follows certain patterns. Two regions are observed in the velocity plots: a passive region where the textile moves up with low velocity and an active region where the textile falls down with relatively high speed. A stagnant area in the residence time profile is observed. This corresponds to the passive region in the velocity profile. The stagnant area affects the mechanical action, thus influencing washing efficiency and textile performance. The findings on textile dynamics will help in the development of better front-loading washers.
