| dc.description.abstract | Natural bamboo fibres have the potential for use in the production of eco-friendly and sustainable textile ma-terials, and have numerous advantages over synthetic fibres. As such, the main aim of this study was to assess the benefits of using raw materials in textile production, including a reduction in energy consumed and time spent, and the reduced use of chemicals that impact the environment, suggesting a sustainable alternative to conventional materials. Thus, natural bamboo fibres exemplify a raw material that can be used in textile applications in various sectors. To investigate the chemical and mechanical separation of young 30–120-day-old bamboo fibres for the purpose of bamboo fibre extraction, experiments were conducted in which the concentration of caustic soda (NaOH) used to separate the fibres was reduced to 5 g/l at 100 °C for 90 min-utes, demonstrating that natural 60-day-old bamboo fibres can be separated effectively into single fibre. Fur-thermore, when natural bamboo fibres are combined with recycled polyester (r-PET) at a blend ratio of 30% to 70% (% by weight), respectively, the fabric’s unique textural characteristics during weaving make it suitable not only for the fabrication of various textile products, but also for a wide range of additional applications. | |
