Abstract :In this study, experimental and statistical evaluation of antibacterial, mechanical, and comfort properties of woven fabrics consisting of cotton, bamboo and silver yarns were presented. For the purpose of the study; cotton-bamboo and cotton-silver blended fabrics were produced, mechanical properties insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(such as tensile strength and tear strength); were investigated, antibacterial activities were determined, and thermal comfort properties insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(such as thermal conductivity, thermal absorption, thermal resistance, air permeability, water vapor permeability, and water vapor resistance); were measured. Statistical evaluations were performed by one way ANOVA and Tukey HSD and Tamhane’s T2 test methods. According to the outputs of the research, the mechanical and comfort properties can be improved and the antibacterial activities can be obtained of shirting and bedding fabrics by differing weft yarn type and density.
