“…Based on the demand of wear and actual use, the as-prepared weft stretchable woven fabric should possess a better long-term structural stability following repeated stretch and recovery. Considering the measured stretch elasticity of fabric (>40%) and the expansion across different body parts during the human movement [36,37], i.e., cyclic movements between 10% and 50%, the elastic recovery of fabric at 20% extension was examined following 1, 10 and 15 cyclic tensile tests. The cyclic test procedure was undertaken as per the China standard FZ/T 01034-2008 [38]: The fabric (50 mm width × 100 mm length) with a pretension of 1 N was tested with an Instron 5567 tensile device (made in USA) to stretch the sample to 20% extension at a speed of 100 mm/min, held at this extension for 1 min; then, the tension was unloaded at the same speed to initial position for 3 min relaxation; after that, the fabric was reloaded with the same preload to measure its elongation length.…”

Elastomeric, conductive composite yarns have recently received attention around the opportunity for them to offer special protective fields. A straightforward approach for fabricating tri-component elastic-conductive composite yarns (t-ECCYs) containing stainless steel wire (SSW) was proposed previously. This work mainly focuses on the electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE) of weft-stretchable woven fabric containing t-ECCY over the X-band under different testing conditions, e.g., single step-by-step elongation, cyclic stretch and lamination events. Results showed that a woven cotton fabric with weft yarn of t-ECCY not only exhibited superior weft stretch-ability to a higher elongation (>40%) compared with a pure cotton control but also had an acceptable 15-cyclic stability with 80% shape recovery retention. The t-ECCY weft fabric was effective in shielding electromagnetic radiation, and its EMSE was also enhanced at elevated elongations during stretch at parallel polarization of EM waves. There was also no decay in EMSE before and after the t-ECCY fabric was subject to 15 stretch cycles at extension of 20%. In addition, a 90 • by 90 • cross lamination of t-ECCY fabric remarkably improved the EMSE compared to a 0 • /90 • one. The scalable fabrication strategy and excellent EMSE seen in t-ECCY-incorporated fabrics represent a significant step forward in protective fields.

In this article, the breaking elongation properties of woven fabrics with incorporated PBT yarns are presented. Different polybutylene terephthalate (PBT) yarns (multifilament PBT yarn, cotton core yarn and twisted viscose yarn, both with PBT in the core) were used. Textured PBT yarns have latent elastic properties, which become visible after the thermal treatment by the finishing process. The aim was to determine which of the constructional parameters is most important in analysing the shrinkage of fabrics after treatment, breaking elongation properties of all tested fabrics, and breaking elongation properties of woven fabrics before and after treatment. A multivariate statistical method ANOVA was used for the analysis. The results show that treatment was by far the most influential factor in the study of breaking elongation of all tested fabrics. When analysing the fabrics separately before and after treatment, the construction of the PBT yarn and the weave were found to be statistically significant parameters.

“…All these features distinguish PBT, the elastic but nonelastomeric yarn, as suitable for use in knitted fabrics [ 12 , 13 ] and woven fabrics [ 5 , 6 , 14 , 15 , 16 ], for blending with all natural or synthetic yarns in various yarn structure forms (filament, core-spun yarn, dual-core yarn) [ 14 , 16 , 17 , 18 ]. PBT is therefore particularly suitable for sportswear, underwear and outerwear, and also for textiles in car interiors or for floor coverings.…”

Elasticity and recovery are important for clothing comfort, especially in the manufacture of apparel and sportswear. Recently, yarns containing PBT (polybutylene terephthalate), which are able to develop good elastic properties with high recovery after a finishing process (e.g., thermal treatment), have been used for this purpose. The aim of this work is to give a comprehensive overview of the use of PBT yarns in woven structure, with the aim of improving the elastic properties of cotton-like fabrics. The experimental part was divided into three main sequences to investigate the fabric properties (physical, elastic, UPF, comfort) influenced by (1) PBT-containing yarn structure, (2) weave and fabric structure (basic weaves and complex weaves) with PBT in weft direction, and (3) processing sequence—thermal treatment of PBT yarns or fabrics after weaving. According to the results, PBT-containing yarns have great potential for the production of lightweight elastic fabrics. The advantages of improving the elastic properties of fabrics by incorporating a relatively small amount of PBT yarns into the fabric only in certain areas, thereby minimally affecting the production costs, are demonstrated by a product with partially elastic areas obtained after thermal treatment.
