Abstract
This study investigates at the properties of high-performance fabrics manufactured using multiple cellulose fibers (cotton, flax, modal, bamboo, and lyocell) with different blending ratios. The primary goal is to compare the absorption capabilities of various cellulose fibers in water and dyes. The purpose of this research is to gain an understanding of how different cellulose fiber ratios interact with one another, taking into consideration their unique characteristics, presence in the fabric, and influence on absorption and dyeability. A total of 15 samples were produced with weft atlas 12 weave structures. The warp yarn  were 100% polyester, while the weft yarns were made up of a variety of cellulose components. In order to evaluate the approach, we obtained five samples of only one type of cellulose fiber: cotton, flax, modal, bamboo, and lyocell, in a regular order. An extra ten samples were also collected. Each sample combines two distinct cellulose fibers, such as cotton and flax, cotton and modal, cotton and bamboo, etc. We estimated the proportion of each mineral in the combination, as indicated in the study, and used the immersion test to conduct the wet test on 15 samples. The immersion test findings, measured in seconds, reflect the rate at which liquid samples are absorbed, with shorter durations suggesting higher lubricant velocity. Statistical study revealed that sample 4, which only contained bamboo cellulose fiber, had the shortest time per second for vasectomy. This shows that bamboo fibers have a high capacity for absorption. Sample number five, which is primarily composed of lyocell cellulose fiber, exhibits quick absorption and a high moisture content, similar to the results of sample number four. The results show that sample 12, which had 27% flax and 14% lyocell, sample 13, which contained 19% modal and 19% bamboo, and sample 14, which contained 16% lyocell and 16% modal, were the most beneficial in speeding up the vasectomy operation. The research problem is as follows: The research problem is the need to characterize the wettability properties of high-performance woven fabrics made from different blend ratios of cotton, flax, modal, bamboo, and lyocell. The study aims to examine the effects of various yarn ratios on the absorption characteristics of cellulosic fibers in water and dyes. Research Objectives: Understanding the influence of the polymer structure of cellulosic fibers on the speed at which they absorb liquid is essential for maximizing their effectiveness in the manufacturing of high-performance fabrics. Research Hypotheses: 1. The difference in polymer content of cellulosic fibers influences wettability speed, dyeability, and color strength. 2.  Cellulosic fibers with higher cellulose content have faster wettability and better dye absorption than fibers with lower cellulose content. Furthermore, the presence of hemicellulose and lignin in cellulosic fibers might affect their color strength and overall performance during dyeing operations. The difference in mixing ratio of cellulosic fibers also impacts wettability and dyeability. Research Limits: The research focuses on five cellouse fiber materials: cotton, flax, modal, bamboo, and lyocell. Research Methodology: This study combines an experimental and analytical methodology
