Abstract [eng] The influence of fabric treatments, fabric structure and yarn composition on the strength, elasticity and bending stiffness behavior of developed antistatic knitted fabrics was investigated for daily wear clothing. 1x1 rib knit fabrics showed higher elongation and strength than half-Milano rib knit fabrics, with high elongation in the wale direction of the fabrics. An increase in antistatic polyester content causes an increase in the tensile strength of the fabrics. Fabric treatments were found to be highly influential with respect to the properties of the knitted fabrics developed. Dyed and softened fabrics showed lower stiffness, while the antibacterial finished group showed increased bending stiffness.
