A very promising cellulose-based natural fibre that is suitable for use in the textile industry is peat fibre. This fibre is a by-product of peat excavation, purified by separating it from other components. In this study, the morphological, chemical and mechanical properties of peat fibres as well as flammability of peat-based knitted fabrics were analysed. The average diameter of the peat fibres is ~60 μm, but it varies in very wide ranges – 25–150 μm; however, the number of fibres with diameter more than 100 μm is very low. As the peat fibre contains a high amount of lignin, lignin amount in the mixed peat/cotton yarn is relatively high too. Lignin is responsible for enhanced flame retardancy; therefore, time to ignition of the peat knit is ~30% higher than that of the cotton knit. Consequently, peat fibre can be used in the knitted structure in order to significantly reduce its flammability. In order to increase the flame retardancy, the knits have been treated by flame retardant in various concentrations. It was found that around the burned hole on the peat knit, treated by very low concentration flame retardant, forms charred area and the knit stops to burn even if the flame source is not removed.

Natural and man-made fibres of natural origin are more and more widely used, while consideration of sustainability is constantly increasing. The properties and processing behaviour of newly introduced fibres of natural origin are usually compared and often predicted on the basis of widely investigated fibres; however, this prediction sometimes does not have any confirmed basis. Structural parameters and the majority of mechanical and physical properties of knitted fabrics depend on technical characteristics of the knitting machine, on the properties of yarns as well as on the origin of the raw material. This study attempts to develop knits from new natural peat fibres and their combination with widely used woollen, cotton and elastomeric Lycra yarns and to investigate the influence of peat fibre’s nature on structural parameters such as loop length, wale and course spacing, area density, the tightness factor and on main physical properties such as dimensional stability, air permeability and water adsorption.

Włókna naturalne i sztuczne pochodzenia naturalnego są coraz szerzej stosowane. Właściwości i sposób przetwarzania nowych włókien pochodzenia naturalnego są często przewidywane na podstawie dobrze znanych włókien, jednak ta prognoza czasami nie ma żadnych potwierdzonych podstaw. Parametry strukturalne i większość właściwości mechanicznych i fizycznych dzianin zależą od właściwości technicznych maszyn dziewiarskich i właściwości przędzy, a także od pochodzenia surowca. W pracy podjęto próbę otrzymania dzianin z włókien torfowych i ich kombinacji z wełną, bawełną i Lycrą. Badano wpływ włókna torfowego na parametry strukturalne, takie jak: długość nitki w oczku, ścisłość kolumienkową i rządkową, ścisłość, stabilność wymiarów, przepuszczalność powietrza i adsorpcję wody.
