【 摘 要 】

The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of industrial finishing and washing processes on some properties of stretch denim fabrics. The investigations have been carried out using stretch denim fabrics with a composition of 98% CO/2% EL and 3/1 Z twill weave. Starting from a greige denim fabric, through the application of various finishing treatments, six variants of finished denim fabrics were obtained. Subsequently, the finished fabrics have been subjected to washing processes commonly used for washing denim garments, in order to attain the appearance and properties as close as possible to those required by the garment products to be made of these materials. The effect of finishing treatments and washing processes on the denim fabrics was assessed by measuring certain structural and physical-mechanical properties. Have been selected and determined by usual laboratory testing methods - as objective assessment - those fabric properties that can be also subjectively assessed by the customers: fabric weight and thickness, fabric extensibility and flexural rigidity, coefficient of friction. The obtained results showed significant changes of fabrics properties both after industrial finishing treatments and after washing processes. These confirm the possibility of obtaining a diverse range of denim fabrics featuring various properties, starting from a single type of greige fabric, by using various finishing treatments and washing processes.
