%0 Journal Article %T Investigation of the Different Washing Processes on the Physical Characteristics of Denim Fabrics %J - %D 2018 %X In this study, the effect of various washing and bleaching treatments on the physical properties of denim fabrics such as weight, breaking strength, bending rigidity, surface friction coefficient and color change were investigated. For this purpose; the various washing processes such as stone washing, enzymatic washing, stone and enzyme washing, peroxide bleaching, hypochlorite and potassium permanganate bleaching were applied to denim fabrics. The results obtained were evaluated statistically. The desired fading effect in denim fabrics was obtained by maximum stone washing, enzyme washing and peroxide bleaching. Considering the strength losses, however, it was determined that the most suitable washing processes were stone washing and enzyme washing because of the high loss of strength in bleached fabrics with peroxide %K Denim kuma£¿ %K Ta£¿ y£¿kama %K Enzim y£¿kama %K A£¿artma %K Fiziksel £¿zellikler %U http://dergipark.org.tr/cukurovaummfd/issue/36873/420713
