Abstract

In this study, the effects of using detergent with boron and softener on repetitive washing of towel and loincloths were investigated. For this aim, two types of towel as light and heavy weight and two types of loincloth as one side piled and non-piled were washed at 10 and 20 cycles by using only ecofriendly detergent with boron and by using both detergent and softener. Then, the weight and density changes, liquid wicking and transfer properties, tear strength and whiteness index values of fabric samples were determined after washing cycles. As a result of the study, it was concluded that detergent with boron can be used for towel and loincloth washing, using both detergent and softener in washing process is more favorable and from the view of water absorbency and drying speed non-piled loincloth product is more practical than others.
