  Abstract

Poly(lactic acid) fibre, PLA, is relatively new but has been on the market for several years. Yet there are problems associated with its production, especially the wet process. PLA, like PET, is not a very water absorbing material and has problems in dyeing. This study was focused on investigating the effect of different heat setting conditions on dimensional stability of PLA yarn by varying heat setting duration and tension applied during heat setting. Then, we investigated the effect of different colour depths on dimensional stability and the effect of heat setting pre-treatment on dimensional stability by comparing dyed yarn with different heat setting conditions and without heat setting. The results of dimensional stability and yarn strength under various conditions of heat setting and dyeing were quantitatively analysed and discussed.
