1. Textile Science-II
Basic knowledge of fabric structure, dying, printing and finishing , common fabric faults.

2. Knitting Technology
Difference between warp knitting and weft knitting.
Various types of knitting: Plain, Purl,Rib and interlock
Tricot and Raschel

3. Finishing
Definition: refers to the processes that convert the woven or knitted cloth into a usable material

4. Classification of Finishing
Basic Finishes:
Bleaching: process to enhance the whiteness of the fabric and removing trace impurities.
Calendaring: mechanical finishing process in which fabric is compressed by passing it between two or more rolls under controlled conditions of time, temperature and pressure.
Tentering: process for setting warp and weft of woven fabrics at right angles to each other and sets the fabric to its final dimension by means of stretching.
Scouring: process of removing natural impurities from fabric like oil, wax, dirt by means of soap solutions and chemicals.
Weighting: the process of increasing the weight of the silk material is known as weighting.
Singeing: is done to achieve a smooth and even surface by burning off projecting fibres.

5. Functional Finishes:
Sanforization: it is anti- shrinkage finishing process to prevent the normal dimensional alteration of warp and weft.
Mercerization: process applied to cotton to enhance its lusture and appearance.
Crease Resistant:finishing process to improve crease resistance, breaking strength and tearing strength.
Flame retardant: finishing process to withstand exposure to flame or high temperature.
Waterproof: closing the pores of fabric by applying substances as insoluble metallic compounds, paraffin ets so as to make the fabric waterproof.

6. Dyeing
Process of adding color to textile products like fibre, yarn and fabrics.

7. Stages of dyeing Fibre dyeing: is carried out at the fibre stage only.
Yarn dyeing: is done after the fibre has been spun into yarn
Piece dyeing: the constructed fabrics are piece dyed for the flexibility they provide.
Garment dyeing: is the process of dyeing fully fashioned garments.
