In the process of making textiles, two distinct fiber types, polyester and Tencel, can be combined to produce materials with improved qualities. Polyester: Polyester is a synthetic material renowned for its resilience to wrinkling, strength, and excellent shape retention. Tencel (Lyocell): The term Tencel refers to a particular kind of Lyocell fiber that is derived from the wood pulp of trees, usually beeches or eucalyptus. It is renowned for being pliable, soft, and capable of wicking away moisture. Because it is made with a closed-loop technique that reduces environmental impact and is obtained from sustainable sources, Tencel is frequently recognized for being environmentally friendly. PolyTencel fabric, a blend of polyester and Tencel fibers, has garnered attention in the textile industry for its sustainable properties and versatile applications. This study delves into the characteristics and performance of Polytencel fiber to produce interlock structures: pique and plating. The pique structure, renowned for its raised patterns and breathability, is examined for its suitability in Polytencel blends. Analysis focuses on the fabric's texture, moisture management, and thermal regulation properties, evaluating its potential in school uniforms, active wear, casual wear, and upholstery. Conversely, the plating structure, characterized by its double-faced construction, presents unique opportunities for Polytencel blends. The study investigates the fabric's drape, durability, and color vibrancy, exploring its potential in creating reversible garments, interior decor, and technical textiles.
