Análise Técnica do Uso de Resíduos de Poliéster na Indústria Têxtil

Abstract

In this investigation, yarns and clothes were made from blending of post-consumer wastes of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), wastes from primary recycling of conventional polyester and elastane. The physicochemical properties were obtained and comparisons with yarns and clothes of commercial polyester/elastane have been made. The results show it is feasible to produce yarns from waste using the same procedures used in the textile industry for the commercial product.
