dc.description.abstractThe increasing environmental impact of the textile industry has led to the development of sustainable production methods. One of the effective approaches is the use of recycled fibers, which helps to save resources, reduce carbon emissions, and support the circular economy. This study investigates the feasibility of producing durable upholstery fabrics incorporating recycled polypropylene (r-PP) and virgin polypropylene (v-PP). Filament yarns with varying r-PP/v-PP blend ratios, produced by the melt spinning process, were used as weft yarns, while commercially available virgin polyester filament yarns were employed in the warp direction for all fabric samples. Performance tests in accordance with the standards were applied to the fabrics and the results were also evaluated statistically. The results show that acceptable performance is achieved in some mechanical properties if similar blend ratios and production parameters are used. In the study, an optimization model was developed to maximize the weft breaking strength using the equations obtained from the regression analyses. With the help of the mathematical model created, the values of other physical and performance properties of the fabric depending on the maximum breaking strength value could be estimated without the need for trial production. The model was solved using Lingo 18.0 optimization software. The solution of the model revealed that the optimum weft yarn blend ratio is 10/90 r-PP/v-PP, and the maximum weft breaking strength value is 562.45 N.
