본 발명은 폴리에스터 혼합 편물의 제조방법에 관하여, 좀더 상세하게는, 폴리에스터와 울의 혼합사를 방적과정을 거쳐 얻어진 방적사를 편직기로 편직한 다음, 염색처리공정을 거쳐 건조, 기모, 약덤블링, 텐터 및 건조공정을 거치는 폴리에스터 혼합 편물의 제조방법에 있어서, 상기 폴리에스터 : 울의 혼합비율을 10~90% : 90~10%의 비율로 하고, 상기 편직은 환편기를 사용하여 테리(Terry)조직으로 편직하며, 상기 염색처리공정을 118℃에서의 염색, RC 처리 및 유연제 처리과정으로 구성하는 것을 특징으로 한 폴리에스터 혼합 편물의 제조방법으로서, 제조원가를 절감하고 생산성을 높힐 수 있음은 물론, 본 발명의 제조방법으로 얻어지는 편물 제품은 가벼우면서도 두께감(후드감)이 있고 보온성이 우수하며, 신축성과 질감이 뛰어나 하프코트나 외투, 고급 운동복, 잠바외피, 조끼 등 여러 분야에 폭넓은 사용이 가능하다.The present invention relates to a method for producing a polyester blended knitted fabric, and more particularly, a yarn obtained by spinning a blended yarn of polyester and wool is knitted with a knitting machine, and then dried, brushed and weakly dubbed through a dyeing process. In the method for producing a polyester blended knitted fabric through a tenter and a drying process, the blending ratio of the polyester: wool is 10 to 90%: 90 to 10%, and the knitting is made by using a circular knitting machine. Knitting as a tissue, the dyeing process is a manufacturing method of a polyester blended knitted fabric, characterized in that the dyeing process at 118 ℃, RC treatment and softener treatment process, can reduce the manufacturing cost and increase productivity , Knitted products obtained by the manufacturing method of the present invention is light, but also has a sense of thickness (hood), excellent thermal insulation, excellent elasticity and texture, half coat, coat, high This large width used in various fields such as sports wear, jacket envelope, it is possible vest.
일반적으로, 폴리에스터 섬유는 기계적 성질과 열적 성질이 우수하여 의류용직물 뿐만 아니라 각종 산업용 소재로서도 널리 사용되고 있다.In general, polyester fibers have excellent mechanical and thermal properties and are widely used not only for garment fabrics but also for various industrial materials.
그러나, 폴리에스터 섬유는 이와 같이 좋은 물성을 갖고 있으면서도 염색성이나 작업성이 불량한 점이 문제인데, 특히 폴리에틸렌테레프탈레이트 호모폴리머로 된 섬유는 염색이 곤란하여 130℃ 정도의 고온과 고압하에서만 염색이 가능하다.However, polyester fibers have such good physical properties but poor dyeability and workability. Especially, fibers made of polyethylene terephthalate homopolymer are difficult to dye and can be dyed only at a high temperature and high pressure of about 130 ° C. .
폴리에스터 섬유의 이러한 불량한 염색성을 개선하기 위한 수단의 하나로서, 예컨데 염액에 캐리어를 첨가하는 방법이 강구되고 있으나, 첨가되는 캐리어가 매우 자극적이고 작업환경의 오염을 악화시킬 수 있으며, 폐기염액의 처분이 어렵고 염색 견뢰도가 나쁘게 되는 등, 폴리에스터 섬유의 염색성이나 작업성의 개선은 과제로 남아 있다.As one of means for improving such poor dyeability of polyester fibers, for example, a method of adding a carrier to the salt solution has been devised, but the carrier to be added is very irritating and may cause contamination of the working environment, and the disposal of the waste salt solution It is difficult to improve the dyeability and workability of the polyester fibers, such as difficult and poor color fastness.
따라서, 폴리에스터와 울의 각각의 장점을 살리고자 양자를 혼합한 경우도 있으나, 폴리에스터와 울의 염색 가능온도(폴리에스터; 고압에서 130℃정도, 울; 저압에서 100℃미만)가 서로 차이가 많아 선염한 후 직기로 짠 직물 정도가 유통되고 있을 뿐이다.Therefore, in order to take advantage of the advantages of polyester and wool, they may be mixed, but the dyeing temperature of polyester and wool (polyester; 130 ° C at high pressure, wool; less than 100 ° C at low pressure) is different from each other. There are only a lot of fabrics that are woven after weaving.
그러나, 이와 같이 직기로 생산해 얻어지는 기존의 직물은, 보온성은 있으나 제품이 무겁고 투박한 느낌을 주고 있어 그 이용에 제한을 받고 있다.However, the existing fabrics produced by the looms have thermal insulation, but the products have a heavy and crude feeling and are limited in their use.
본 발명은 상기 결점을 감안하여 이루어진 것으로, 폴리에스터와 울의 혼합사를 방적과정을 거쳐 얻어진 방적사를 편직기로 편직한 다음, 염색처리공정을 거쳐 건조, 기모, 약덤블링, 텐터 및 건조공정을 거치는 폴리에스터 혼합 편물의 제조방법에 있어서, 상기 폴리에스터 : 울의 혼합비율을 10~90% : 90~10%의 비율로 하고, 상기 편직은 환편기를 사용하여 테리조직으로 편직하며, 상기 염색처리공정을 118℃에서의 염색, RC 처리 및 유연제 처리과정으로 구성함으로써, 제조원가를 절감하고 생산성을 높힐 수 있음은 물론, 가벼우면서도 두께감이 있고, 보온성이 우수하며 신축성과 질감이 뛰어나 하프코트나 외투, 고급 운동복, 잠바외피, 조끼 등 여러 분야에 폭넓은 사용이 가능한 편물 제품을 얻고자 함에 목적이 있는 것이다.The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned defects, and the knitting yarn obtained by spinning the blended yarn of polyester and wool is knitted with a knitting machine, and then dried, brushed, weakly dumbling, tenter and drying through a dyeing process. In the method of producing a polyester blend knitted fabric, the blending ratio of the polyester: wool is 10 to 90%: 90 to 10%, the knitting is knitted into terry tissue using a circular knitting machine, the dyeing process It consists of dyeing, RC treatment and softening agent treatment at 118 ℃, which can reduce manufacturing cost and increase productivity, as well as lightness, thickness, insulation, and excellent elasticity and texture. The aim is to obtain knitted products that can be used in a wide range of fields, including sportswear, jackets and vests.
본 발명의 폴리에스터 혼합 편물의 제조방법에 있어서는, 폴리에스터와 울의 혼합사를 방적과정을 거쳐 얻어진 방적사를 편직기로 편직한 다음, 염색처리공정을 거쳐 건조, 기모, 약덤블링, 텐터 및 건조공정을 거치는 폴리에스터 혼합 편물의 제조방법에 있어서, 상기 폴리에스터 : 울의 혼합비율을 10~90% : 90~10%의 비율로 하고, 상기 편직은 환편기를 사용하여 테리조직으로 편직하며, 상기 염색처리공정을 118℃에서의 염색, RC 처리 및 유연제 처리과정으로 구성하는 것이 특징이다.In the method for producing a polyester blended knitted fabric of the present invention, a yarn obtained by spinning a blended yarn of polyester and wool is knitted with a knitting machine, and then dried, brushed, weakly dumbled, tentered and dried through a dyeing process. In the method of producing a polyester blend knitted fabric, the blending ratio of the polyester: wool is 10 to 90%: 90 to 10% ratio, the knitting is knitted into terry tissue using a circular knitting machine, the dyeing The process consists of dyeing at 118 ° C, RC treatment and softener treatment.
