In this study, the effect of different washing processes on various performance and surface properties of denim fabrics were examined. For this purpose, 3 different types of fabrics (1/1 plain, 2/2 twill and 3/1 twill constructions) were produced from 100% cotton yarn, and 4 different types of washing processes (rinse, enzyme, stone and stone+bleach) were applied. The effect of woven structure and washing processes on denim fabrics performance properties like dimensional stability, breaking strength, tearing strength, bending rigidity, surface views examination and colorimetric evaluation were investigated statistically.
