Özet

A new double-face knitted structure has been developed which is composed of tuck stitches and has the same back and front faces. The newly derived structure, manufactured from p-aramid fibers with and without inlay yarns, has been compared with jersey and plush structures of these same fibers in terms of cut and stab performances. Not only have new structures been proposed, but the effect of the inlay yarns has been investigated also. In order to manufacture the plush structure on a V-bed Flat Knitting Machine instead of a traditional circular knitting machine a new design has been developed. The results show that the newly derived structure with inlay yarns has the best cut and stab performances when a comparison is made between samples of different structures with the same mass per unit area and thickness values.
