The purpose of this study is to provide the dyeing and physical characteristics of napped knit fabrics composed of latent crimped yarn. The K/S values, dyeing fastness, thickness, bulkiness, and shrinkage characteristics of three knit fabrics were investigated. The original knit fabric (SK) was composed of 1ply latent crimped yarn (75/36) in the ground and PET DTY (70/100) in the pile loop, in order of napped process the napped knit fabric (SN) was napped SK fabric. In order to compare of latent crimped yarn content, the last knit fabric (DN) was napped 2ply latent crimped yarn were included in the same structure of SK. Dyeability of three knit fabrics was similar but the shrinkage properties of DN fabric were significant different. The bulkiness shows a tendency to increase the bulkiness as increasing the dyeing temperature, and the bulkiness of the SN was higher because of the napping process and optimal content of latent crimped yarn.

A fineness range of 150 Nm-170 Nm has recently been applied to produce much finer wool products, so that processing techniques for the wool fabrics have been developed very rapidly. However, the worsted wool-like technique using polyester fiber has not been still implemented in general processing technique. Therefore, this research is to develop materials of side-by-side type with high finess, high shrinkage and stretchability. The mechanical properties of the produced fabrics were analyzed and the fundamental information were obtained for the new worsted wool-like products. The physical properties of a latent crimped yarns of side-by-side type with stretch function are analyzed. Also the mechanical properties of five kinds of fabrics are analyzed, which are produced with non-circular shape(+type) warp yarns of a twist of 1000(T/M) and with two kinds of latent weft yarns of a twist of 1000 T/M and DTY respectively.

The dyeing behaviors of poly(ethylene terephthalate)(PET) bulky yarns, DTY(draw textured yarn) and SSY(latent crimped yarn), were investigated with different energy type disperse dyes compared with those of SDY(spin draw yarn). The maximum exhaustions of E-type disperse Red 60, Blue 56 and Yellow 54 on SSY were 99%, 94% and 93%, respectively. The maximum exhaustions of S-type disperse Red 179, Blue 79 and Orange 30 on SSY were 96%, 97% and 97%, respectively. The K/S values of SSY were significantly higher than those of DTY and SDY in all energy type of disperse dyes. The knit fabric composed of SSY became bulky at the end of high temperature dyeing process because of their thermal shrinkage property due to melt viscosity difference.
