(Bursa Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2023-10-11) Var, Cansu; Palamutcu, Sema
Yarn and spinning technology is a complex process that is a combination of raw materials, machinery, and automation technology where continuous improvements, researches and innovations run progressively. For the evolution of spinning technology, academic publications, postgraduate theses, andtechnological contributions of related shareholders must be considered as adherent supplements. Aim ofthis study is to examine the accomplished 236 postgraduate theses related to conventional and noveltextile fibre types, staple spun/filament yarn technology and machinery, yarn types with structural andfunctional varieties, and modified spinning technologies in Turkish Universities. Moreover, it is aimed toreveal any trend in theses on yarn technology and the regional textile clusters in Türkiye. Themethodology of the pursuit is a quantitative assessment where postgraduate level, thesis subject, year ofthesis defence, and raw materials used in the theses are concerned. The findings showed that research ersfocussed on conventional spinning systems and yarns in parallel with the spinning capacity and importpotential of the country. Other extractions of the study are; classical ring system is mostly studied by there searchers, modern spinning technologies are included in many theses, reflections of globalcircumstances are distinguished in theses with keywords of manmade/recycled fibres, and blended yarns.
