ABSTRACT

The low melting PET yarn has sheath/core structure: sheath portion consists of low melting point PET and core portion is regular PET. Dyeing properties of fabric made from low melting PET yarn were investigated at different dyeing temperatures. It was found that the exhaustion yield on the low melting PET fabric was higher than on regular PET fabric. The total K/S value of the dyed low melting PET fabric increased as heat setting temperature increased above 150℃ because the sheath portion of the low melting yarn melted. Although fastness to light of the low melting PET fabric was similar to regular PET fabric, fastness to washing was inferior to regular PET fabric by 1 grade.
