Hybrid and Eco-Friendly Fabric is an innovation in the Textile industry that has a
highly demand in the local and international market today. The Development of Pandanus
Odorifer Fabric treated with Hydrophobic Finishing Technology can be the answer to that
need. It could be an alternative to Pina-cotton, cotton-abaca and other natural fabric
available in the market today. Prior to the preparation, the fabric was subjected to series
of test wherein result shown the characteristics of the fabric. In terms abrasion resistance,
the fabric can resist more than 10,000 rubs, flammability shown that the fabric did not
ignited which is safe to use as garment. The fabric weight is 162grams with a moderate
pilling rated 3.0 in Pilling resistance. The fabric’s weft tensile strength can hold up to
84.8 lbs and the warp’s tensile strength can hold up to 51.3 lbs. lastly, the water
repellency rated 75 which has partial wetting of the specimen face beyond spray point.
The yarn was woven into into plain weave fabric structure. The product was presented to
30 respondents and evaluated based on the criteria of the evaluation instrument resulting
to an overall mean rating of 3.80 which is acceptable in descriptive rating. It signifies
that the product has the potential to use as garment and other uses such as bags and
alternative to painting canvass. However, it is recommended that the hydrophobic
finishing must undergo intense application of solution to retain water repellency.
