Özet

This paper is focused on the selected factors that influence the air permeability property of woven fabrics produced with centipede yarns. In the experimental study, the centipede yarns were produced on a Crochet machine with varying chain numbers and band lengths. The centipede yarns were used as filling in the woven fabric construction. Air permeability measurements were performed with a digital test instrument. According to the results of the statistical analyses performed using the experimental values obtained from the tests, air permeability property of the fabrics was affected by the centipede yarns parameters like chain number and band length. Fabrics woven with the centipede yarns with higher chain number and band length had less air permeability than those with lower chain number and band length. The air permeability of the fabrics decreased with the increase in centipede yarn linear density.
