TEKRARLI YIKAMANIN FARKLI ÜRETİM PARAMETRELERİYLE ÜRETİLMİŞ İĞNELENMİŞ VE KALENDERLENMİŞ DOKUSUZ YÜZEY TEMİZLİK BEZLERİNİN ÖZELLİKLERİNE ETKİSİ

Bu çalışmanın amacı; farklı koşullarda üretilen iğnelenmiş ve ısıl bağlanmış dokusuz yüzey temizlik bezlerinin 0, 1, 5, 10 defa yıkama sonrasındaki fiziksel ve performans özelliklerinin değerlendirilmesidir. Bu amaçla, farklı gramajlarda olan, polyester ve viskon lifi içeren ve iğnelendikten sonra ya sıcak silindirlerle ya da sıcak hava ile ısıl bağlama uygulanmış dokusuz yüzey temizlik bezi materyal olarak seçilmiştir. Bütün numuneler standart yıkama işlemi ile 1, 5 ve 10 defa yıkanıp test edilmiştir. Yıkama sonrasında; gramaj, kalınlık, yoğunluk, aşınma dayanımı, patlama mukavemeti ve su emme kapasitesi özellikleri analiz edilmiş ve üretim işlemlerindeki farklılıklar dikkate alınarak ayrıntılı olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmadan elde edilen sonuçlar, sıcak hava ile bağlama uygulanmış numunelerin sıcak silindirlerle olan eşleniklerine göre yıkamadan sonra daha iyi performans özelliklerine sahip olduklarını göstermiştir.

THE EFFECT OF REPEATED LAUNDERING ON PROPERTIES OF NEEDLED AND CALENDERED NONWOVEN CLEANING MATERIALS PRODUCED WITH DIFFERENT PROCESS CONDITIONS

The aim of this study is to evaluate the physical and performance properties of needled and thermal bonded nonwoven cleaning materials produced with different conditions after changing washing cycles; 0, 1, 5 and 10 cycles. For this purpose, 5 different nonwoven cleaning materials with different areal weights containing polyester and viscose fibers and produced by either calendering or through air bonding after needling process was selected as material. All the samples were washed with standard washing procedures for 1, 5 and 10 times and tested before and after washing cycles. The variation in areal weight, thickness, bulk density, abrasion resistance, bursting strength and water absorption capacity was analyzed and assessed in detail considering production process difference. The results derived from the study indicated that through air bonded samples had better performance properties after washing cycles compared with calendered counterparts.
