Sustainable Eco-Friendly Yarns with Biodegradable Synthetic Fibers and Bringing These Fibers into Short Fiber Spinning
Researchers created eco-friendly yarns using a mix of organic cotton and recycled ocean plastic, reducing waste and pollution.
The study aimed to develop sustainable textile products using short fiber spinning technology. Researchers created yarns from a combination of organic cotton and recycled marine plastic, collected with environmental responsibility. They compared the performance of these yarns to those made from a mixture of standard polyester and organic cotton. The results showed the potential of using biodegradable synthetic fibers in textile production.
Abstract
Due to the increase in environmental concerns, ecological and sustainable textile products are needed. While plastic production continues to increase in the world, these plastics, which pollute the sea and oceans, damage the ecological balance by damaging more than 800 livings. Within the scope of the study; yarn and fabric were developed with short fiber spinning technology by using organic cotton with recycled marine plastic collected from the oceans with environmental responsibility awareness and their performance properties were examined. At the same time, yarn and fabric were produced from mixture of standard polyester and organic cotton, and performance values were compared with the yarn developed within the scope of the study.
