Özet

The study compares cotton towels produced from twisted and twistless cotton pile yarn. The towels were manufactured with different weft density, different weft yarn counts, and different pile heights. The water absorptive capacity, absorbency time and flexural rigidity properties of twisted pile towels were compared with those of twistless pile towels. The test results were evaluated using statistical analysis. Effects of twisted and twistless pile yarn, pile height, weft density, and weft yarn count on absorptive capacity, absorbency time, and flexural rigidity of fabrics were examined using analysis of variance (ANOVA). The results indicate that the towels woven with twistless pile yarns have greater absorptive capacity, longer absorbency time, and lower flexural rigidity than towels woven with twisted pile yarns.
