Bilisik, Kadir. "Experimental determination of yarn pull-out properties of para-aramid (Kevlar®) woven fabric." Journal of Industrial Textiles 41, no. 3 (August 1, 2011): 201–21. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/1528083711413411.
Full textAbstract:
The aim of this study was to determine the pull-out properties of the para-aramid woven fabrics. Para-aramid Kevlar 29® (K29) and Kevlar 129® (K129) woven fabrics were used to conduct the pull-out tests. K29 and K129 woven fabrics had high and low fabric densities, respectively. For this reason, yarn pull-out fixture was developed to test various K29 and K129 fabric sample dimensions. Data generated from single and multiple yarn pull-out tests in various dimensions of K29 and K129 woven fabrics included fabric pull-out forces, yarn crimp extensions in the fabrics, and fabric displacements. Yarn pull-out forces depended on fabric density, fabric sample dimensions, and the number of pulled ends in the fabric. Multiple yarn pull-out force was higher than single yarn pull-out force. Single- and multiple-yarn pull-out forces in K29 (tight fabric) were higher than those of K129 (loose fabric). Yarn crimp extension in K29 and K129 fabrics depended on crimp ratio in the fabrics and fabric density. High crimp ratio fabrics showed high yarn crimp extension compared to that of the low crimp ratio fabrics. Long fabric samples also showed high yarn crimp extension compared to that of the short fabrics. Fabric displacement in K29 and K129 fabrics depended on fabric sample dimensions and the number of pulled yarns. Long fabric samples showed high fabric displacement compared to that of short fabric samples. Fabric displacement from multiple yarn pull-out test was also higher than that of the single yarn pull-out test. It was considered that fabric pull-out properties can play important roles for absorption of impact load due to the yarn frictions in the fabric structures.

Çitari is a type of fabric that emerged with new fabrics that began to appear after the eighteenth century. In çitari fabrics, was used silk in warp and cotton in weft. The characteristic feature of this fine fabric is that it is woven in stripes. However, there are many traditional fabric types woven as striped fabric. Çitari fabrics can be distinguished from other striped fabrics by their characteristics such as weaving weave, warp color pattern, raw material, and quality. It is known that çitari fabrics were woven in regions such as Bursa, Gaziantep, Istanbul, Tunceli, Diyarbakır, Tokat, Antalya, Harput, Yalvaç, İzmir, Denizli, India and Damascus. This type of fabric, which was widely used by the public in the past, is no longer produced today. It is thought that it is important to consider this fabric, which has the same name as a fish and a stringed musical instrument, in terms of its striped feature. In this context, çitari fabrics; with emphasis on historical development, word origin, types, usage areas and structural fabric properties, it is aimed to bring identity information to the literature. The technical analysis of 9 çitari fabric samples in the Kenan Özbel collection was made and presented in charts. In this respect, the study is important in order to can be re-weave çitari fabrics with the same characteristics and to can be compare them with similar fabric types in terms of technical information. Scanning and description, one of the research methods, was used in the study. As a result of the written literature reviews, it was seen that the çitari fabric was compared to the striped fabrics Kutnu, Alaca, Altıparmak, Diba, Selimiye, Manusa, Keremsut, and it was discussed by contrasting it with the fabric identity information in the evaluation part.

Electrically enhanced triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) using 3D fabrics and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) are suggested for next-generation wearable electronics. TENGs with fabric–fabric– fabric (FFF) and PDMS–fabric–PDMS (PFP) structures were fabricated with ordinary 2D fabrics and honeycomb-like 3D fabrics. A 3D fabric TENG with an FFF structure showed an output voltage of 7 V, 7 times higher than a 2D fabric FFF structured TENG. Interestingly, an extremely high output voltage of 240 V was achieved by a 3D fabric PFP structured TENG. This was attributed to the high surface frictional triboelectric effect between fabric and PDMS and also marginal 3D structure in the 3D fabric active layer.

Abstract In view of the weak mechanical properties of polylactic acid fiber, the excellent mechanical properties of ramie fiber are selected to enhance the performance of polylactic acid fiber, thereby forming a composite fabric, and weaving plain weave fabric, twill weave fabric, satin weave fabric and square plain fabric by weaving method., Twill change fabric and satin change fabric six kinds of fabrics. Electronic thickness meter, electronic strength meter, and electronic bursting tester were used to test the thickness, tensile fracture and burst performance of 6 kinds of fabrics, and the reasons for the differences between the fabrics were discussed. The research results show that the mechanical properties of composite fabrics are better than those of pure polylactic acid fabrics. In addition, in terms of tensile fracture performance, the satin weave fabric is the strongest, and the satin weave is the strongest in burst performance. In terms of fabric thickness, the lowest thickness value is plain weave, but the thickness value, tensile breaking and bursting properties of square flat fabrics are ranked second, so the overall performance is always the strongest.

The automatic segmentation of flaws and acquisition of parameters in woven fabrics has been achieved. However, the problem is that information of gray information of float is difference with real fabric. It is important to use a fabric that includes the total information of woven fabrics, meanwhile, the fabric was illuminated even. To solve the problem, in this research, images of virtual woven fabrics of plain were developed in order to research the methods of automatic segmentation of flaws and acquisition of parameters in woven fabrics using the images of real woven fabric. The warp and weft float in the fabric were cut from the scan image of real fabric. The fabrics included main information of interlacing of warp and weft, the count, weaving density, and reflection property of real float. It was possible that the fabrics could be used to discuss the problem proving robustness of the algorithms by adding unique flaw to the fabric.

Full textAbstract:
Behavior of woven fabrics during complex deformations is most influentially affected by their shear behavior. Shear characteristics of woven fabrics can be explained by fabric shear rigidity and shear hysteresis. In this study, the effects of weft density, weft count, and fiber type on shear behavior of woven fabrics in the principal directions of fabric were statistically evaluated. Statistical methods such as multiple linear regression analysis, univariate test, and correlation analysis were also applied. The univariate test results confirmed that the weft density is the most dominant parameter that affects fabric shear properties. Multiple linear regression results point to poor shear behavior in woven fabrics with cotton weft yarns. In addition, correlation between the shear rigidity of the fabrics along principal directions with the Milasius fabric firmness factor and the fabric cover factor as integrated structural parameters was established. High correlation was found to exist among Milasius fabric firmness factor, fabric cover factor, and shear rigidity of fabrics along principal directions.

Fabric hand is an indispensable characteristic for the selection of fabric and product development and the buying consideration for manufacturers and consumers. However, there is little comprehensive work on the hand feel property of warp-knitted fabrics due to the mainstream natural fibers (cotton, wool and silk) and other fabric structures (woven, weft-knitted and nonwoven). The increasing potential for the wide variety of applications and development of warp-knitted fabrics is not only because its fabric hand gives better determination for fabric marketing, but also because it provides extensive scope for fabric performance and appearance. This paper reports an experimental study on the integrated fabric hand behavior of a series of warp-knitted fabrics made for various apparel applications, such as sportswear, lingerie and leisure wear. These 105 fabrics were produced by varying different physical parameters, including fabric weight and fabric thickness. The Kawabata Evaluation System for Fabric (KES-F) was employed to obtain the fabric hand properties (primary hand value and total hand value) related with stiffness, smoothness and softness. All low-stress mechanical properties and fabric hand values from the testing results were used to verify the applicability of the KES-F on warp-knitted fabrics and to analyze the relationships of fabric parameters and hand characteristics. The results indicate that the KES-F is an appropriate tool to measure the hand attributes of warp-knitted samples, and moderate correlations between physical properties and mechanical behavior were found.

Full textAbstract:
By weaving four sets of yarn ends at 45° angles, formed a “米” sharp in the interlacing point, a tetr-axial Fabric is fabricated. Because of the existence of the bias yarns, the tetr-axial fabric has the similar tensile property in almost all directions of fabric plane, excellent impact resistance, good stability of fabric structure, and so on. This paper, the bursting property and thicknesses of tetr-axial fabric, laminated quadri-directional fabric and conventional woven fabrics are compared, with which they have the same areal density. The results showed that, the thickness of tetr-axial fabric is more than conventional woven fabrics and less than that of laminated quadri-directional fabric; the bursting property is obviously better than that of laminated quadri-directional fabric and conventional woven fabrics.

Full textAbstract:
Fabrics made from friction spun fillings (friction fabrics) had a hand that was judged to be equivalent to fabrics made from ring spun fillings of the same count (ring fabrics). Fabrics with rotor spun fillings (rotor fabrics) had a hand that was harsher than either of the others. The friction spun fillings only had a tenacity of about 57% of ring yarns. Plain weave friction fabrics had a tenacity in the filling direction of about 70% of ring fabrics and 66% for twill weave fabrics. The tear strength was 63% of the ring fabric. Warps were common in each set, but the substitution of one filling by another type altered the fabric performance in the warp direction even though the filling yarn count was unchanged. The topography of the fabric surface was changed by the substitution. Harmonic analysis of surface roughness data showed the effects to be considerable. Fabric bending stiffnesses changed by altering the fabric and yarn structures, but the two methods of measurement did not give identical assessments of these differences. Fabric shear and hysteresis losses suggest that friction fabric might tend to “bag.”

To develop novel biocomposites, three different silk-fibroin fabrics (plain woven fabric, plain weft-knit fabric and non-woven fabric) were, respectively, blended with poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) by a solution blending method. The effects of various fabric structures on the mechanical and microstructure properties of silk-fibroin fabric reinforced (SF-fabric-reinforced) PCL biocomposites were investigated. It was obvious that the breaking strength and elongation of SF-fabric-reinforced PCL biocomposites decreased while the Youngs modulus increased. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) photographs showed that silk-fibroin fabrics were well bonded with PCL matrix. From Wide-Angle X-ray Diffraction (WXRD) analysis, plain woven and plain weft-knit fabrics showed higher ability to increase the crystallinity of PCL matrix compared with non-woven fabric.

Full textAbstract:
Single jersey knitted fabrics are generally used to make underwear and outerwear such as T-shirts. Knit fabric can more easily deform or stretch by compressing or elongating the individual stitches that form the fabric. Cotton yarns, which are not elastomeric, do not have the ability of recovery to rearrange the stitches. As a consequence, single-knit fabrics may have permanent deformation. To improve the recovery performance of circular single-knit fabrics, it is now a common practice to knit a small amount of spandex fiber or yarn with companion cotton yarn. In this study the physical, dimensional, and mechanical properties of back plaited cotton/spandex single jersey knitted fabrics were investigated and the results are compared with knitted fabrics made from 100% cotton and the effect of spandex percentage was also studied. It was found that as the loop length increases, the wales density was not affected and specific fabric hand and extension increased, but bursting strength and fabric recovery decreased. The presence of Lycra in single jersey knitted fabric increases of course density, fabric thickness, and knitted fabric recovery, while fabric width, fabric porosity, and extension were decreased.

As the basic materials with specific properties, fabrics have been widely applied in electromagnetic (EM) wave protection and control due to their characteristics of low density, excellent mechanical properties as well as designability. According to the different mechanisms and application scenarios on EM waves, fabrics can be divided into three types: EM shielding fabric, wave-absorbing fabric and wave-transparent fabric, which have been summarized and prospected from the aspects of mechanisms and research status, and it is believed that the current research on EM wave fabrics are imperfect in theory. Therefore, in order to meet the needs of different EM properties and application conditions, the structure of fabrics will be diversified, and more and more attentions should be paid to the research on structure of fabrics that meets EM properties, which will be conductive to guiding the development and optimization of fabrics. Furthermore, the application of fabrics in EM waves will change from 2D to 3D, from single structure to multiple structures, from large to small, as well as from heavy to light.

Full textAbstract:
This paper reports the study of the effects of cramming motion implemented during weaving and finer weft yarns used on dyed-yarn mixed woven fabrics produced by using raw white warps and multicolored-wefts. The cramming motion was used to increase the dyed-weft yarns cover factor of fabric, and thus, to reduce the negative effect of white warp floats at the fabric face on the color attributes of fabric. The surface structure of fabric was characterized by using several key geometrical parameters that determined the resultant fabric color attributes. The effects of fabric structure and density, weft yarn count, and the introduction of black yarn on the fabric face layer on the fabric surface geometrical parameters, physical properties, as well as color attributes were investigated under the implementation of cramming motion on the fabric. The color attributes of fabrics using cramming motion and finer yarns were also compared to the fabrics without cramming motion. The experimental results indicate that the weft yarn density and cover factor of fabric face layer are increased by applying cramming motion and finer yarns for fabricating the blue-red and/or black mixed fabrics. Consequently, the fabric lightness can be further reduced for achieving a better color effect on colorful and figured woven fabrics mainly using dyed-wefts for color mixing.

Full textAbstract:
This paper investigates the sewability of the woven denim fabrics based on needle penetration force (NPF). For this purpose, the effects of fabric weight, number of fabric layers, needle size, and the interaction effect of these parameters on NPF in twill denim fabrics were investigated. In addition, the influence of weave pattern on NPF was studied. The statistical analysis results show that NPF is influenced by these parameters. Fabric weight has a greater effect on NPF than other parameters. With increasing fabric weight, number of fabric layers, and needle size, the NPF increases. The trend of this increase is nonlinear as predicted by a cubic regression equation. The fabric sewability is also influenced by the mentioned parameters. The fabric sewability becomes poor with increasing fabric weight, needle size, and number of fabric layers. Generally, lighter fabrics sewn with finer needles have better sewability.

Full textAbstract:
If a wool fabric is restrained during drying, as in tentering, there is a close relationship between the relaxation shrinkage that is induced and the hygral expansion. A high correlation also exists between the hygral expansion and extensibility of relaxed fabrics. For conventional woven fabrics, this relationship is independent of fabric structure and the finishing routine used. Separate relationships for warp and weft directions exist between extensibility (of relaxed fabric) and relaxation shrinkage in commercial fabrics. The difference in extensibility (at 500 gf/cm) for a relaxed fabric, and the corresponding unrelaxed fabric, is related to the relaxation shrinkage in the unrelaxed fabric.

This research focused on the thermal comfort behaviour of polyester with respect to the type of yarn (spun, micro denier, continuous filament and hollow), linear density of the yarn (111 and 166 dtex), and the loop length of knitted fabric (0.25, 0.27 and 0.29 cm).The air permeability of continuous filament yarn fabric and micro denier yarn knitted fabrics was noted to be higher than that of spun yarn knitted fabrics. 111 dtex micro denier yarn fabric has the highest air permeability and 111 dtex spun yarn fabric the lowest air permeability value among all the other fabric samples. Comparatively, coarser spun yarn fabric has lower air permeability characteristics than finer microdenier fabric.The water permeability of the fabric shows a significant difference between the spun yarn, continuous filament yarn and Micro denier yarn knitted fabrics and between the linear density of the yarn. The water vapour permeability of spun yarn of 166 dtex single jersey fabric is higher, while the water vapour permeability of continuous filament yarn fabric of 166 dtex is lower. The thermal conductivity value is high for continuous filament polyester fabric of 100 D and low for microdenier polyester fabric of 166 dtex. Based on the statistical analysis, it is clearly shown that there are significant differences between the three different polyester yarn fabrics of two different denier of the same fabric. Furthermore, the count and different polyester yarn affect the comfort properties of single jersey fabrics.

Abstract This paper focuses on the assessment of whiteness indices (WI) changes that occurred in white polyester fabrics according to different fabric layers. Yellowness indices (YI) were also assessed with the WI of fabric samples. White polyester fabrics having different constructional parameters were used, the results showed that WI of polyester fabrics increased up to a certain layer of fabric depending on constructional parameters and compactness of fabric. After a certain layer, WI of fabrics remained almost constant or steeply decreased. YI changed in good relation with whiteness changes. The results showed that the suitable number of fabric layer could be determined for WI measurements according to the compactness and to the structural parameters of the fabric samples. The suitable choice of the fabric layers for whiteness measurement depended on fabric constructional properties and could be made by considering the certain layer number, which could be obtained at the point of the maximum value of whiteness.

Abstract We have examined the fabric-to-metal surface and fabric-to-fabric frictional characteristics (in both warp and weft directions) of a series of fabrics containing 100% polyester, 100% viscose, and P/C & P/V blends with different blend proportions. It has been observed that the normal load and the frictional force follow a logarithmic relationship for all the fabrics. The nature of fabric friction is characterised by different parameters such as the F/N ratio, and the values of n, k and k/n. Fabric-to-metal friction is found to be less sensitive to fabric morphology and rubbing direction, whereas fabric-to-fabric friction is highly sensitive to these factors. Fabric friction has been affected by many factors such as the type of fibre, type of blend, blend proportion, yarn structure, fabric structure, crimp and crimp height, compressibility, etc. In P/C and P/V blended fabrics, the frictional force increases as the cellulose fibre component increases.

This paper focused on the assessment of the relation between constructional properties and percentage reflectance values of fabrics woven from polyester yarns through fabric layer numbers. Reflectance measurements were conducted on pretreated but undyed fabric samples at five different fabric layers. Twelve polyester fabrics having different constructional parameters were used and fabrics differed from each other by their weft yarn densities, weave patterns, and weft yarn filament fineness. Warp yarn properties (type, count, and density) were the same at all the fabrics. Percentage reflectance values of the fabrics changed according to yarn density, weave pattern, and filament fineness in accordance with fabric layer numbers during reflectance measurement. Percentage reflectance values gradually increased as fabric layer numbers increased. The highest reflectance values were obtained at 16 layers of fabric. The effects of single constructional parameters on reflectance values disappeared as fabric layer numbers increased. Percentage reflectance values were analyzed according to ANOVA (Analysis of Variance) and statistical results revealed the cross relations obtained. Light-trap phenomenon was discussed according to reflectance characteristics of woven fabrics.

This study used the DR-SO4 window method to test the shielding effectiveness of silver-plated fiber functional fabric, copper–nickel duplicate coating fabric, and stainless steel fiber-blended-type fabric. These electromagnetic shielding fabrics exhibited different levels of shielding effectiveness under different polarization directions. In the same frequency, the shielding effectiveness difference between the vertical polarization wave direction and horizontal or 45° polarization wave direction is higher in silver-plated fiber functional fabric and copper–nickel duplicate coating fabric than that in stainless steel fiber-blended fabric. The radiation distance of 1.5 m has great influence on the shielding effectiveness of the three fabrics. These fabrics show a repeated and intersected change in wrinkle degrees of 1# and 2#. The fabrics in the wrinkle degree of 2# have higher shielding effectiveness than that of 3#. The wrinkle recovery properties of electromagnetic shielding fabrics also affect their shielding effectiveness. The shielding effectiveness of copper–nickel duplicate coating fabric with low wrinkle recovery property considerably changes. This research provides a basis for the design of electromagnetic shielding fabrics.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to create a fabric retrieval system for designers that is based on a database that includes designers’ criteria and Kansei (sense and feeling) information, designed for the selection of a fabric from a wide range in e-commerce. Design/methodology/approach The database included sensory expressions for each type of fabric taken from fashion journals and values of smoothness, softness, luster and thinness (referred to as Kansei values) for each fabric. The Kansei values were determined by a Japanese expert designer using standard fabric samples of a fabric type. The system uses two search methods to find the desired type of fabric: a category search method and a free word search method. After finding appropriate types of fabric, the user further narrows down the fabrics of the selected type to more suitable fabrics using the Kansei values. The validity of the Kansei values and the effectiveness of the system were verified by 11 professional designers from Japan and Sweden. Findings The Japanese and Swedish designers were satisfied with the fabrics retrieved for specific items and found that the system was effective. The Kansei values were similar among fashion designers and shown to be effective for fabric retrieval. Originality/value The system will allow designers to find appropriate types of fabric and to narrow their search for fabrics among selected types to find candidate fabrics easily and quickly with their Kansei values and experience without technical knowledge of fabrics.

Warp yarn type and count and warp density were the same but weft yarn count, weft yarn filament fineness/numbers, and weft density were different for the fabrics in the experimental sub-groups. An objective assessment for surface roughness measurement of woven fabrics by using a stylus profilometer was made. Experimental results show that yarn filament fineness affected fabric porosity and fabric surface roughness. Fabrics with finer filaments could have a compact structure due to small porosity values between the filaments inside the yarns and between yarns themselves in fabrics. Closeness of yarns in fabric structure decreased differences between high and low peaks on fabric surface, and as a result fabric surface roughness decreased.

There are many types of fabric materials used in military applications. From clothing to protective equipment, fabric analysis mostly focused on its physical properties. Still, its flammability has not been well studied, such as ease of ignition, heat release, and toxicity. This paper reports the flammability properties of fabric in military applications. The ignition time, heat release, and smoke production of six commercially available military fabrics are discussed in this article. The fabrics analysed are cotton, polyester-cotton, coated nylon, and kenaf fabric. The fabric grouping into the coated and printed fabric while cotton and kenaf were tested as a comparison. Results indicated that coated fabric (N420D and N1000D) showed higher TTI compared to printed fabric (P35C65, P35C65M, and P65C35). It is affected by heat flux, the areal density of the sample, sample mass, and the number of sample layers. Coated fabrics (N420D and N1000D) indicate higher EHC compared with other fabrics. For printed fabric, a relatively lower EHC was observed as it indicates incomplete combustion. Total heat release of the samples tested was presented as an integration of the HRR vs time curve. Coated samples show the highest values for PHRR and THR values compared to printed and cotton fabrics.

Flexible stab-resistant fabrics have been widely used in military and civilian fields; however, there are few researches about effects of incidence angle on stabbing performance of fabrics. Thereof, the stab-resistant mechanism of fabric is investigated from raw material selection, fabric preparation and quasi-static stab-resistant performance test. We analyzed and obtained the modes of interaction between knife and fabric and the mutual influence between the fabrics through different angles and the compound way at different angles. Results show that with the increasing of the angle of incidence, the cutting forces of fabric decrease and the strength reducing rate of fabric increases. The strength trend of compound fabric at different angles is the same as single layer fabric; however, the strength reducing rate firstly increases then decreases. It may be explained that there exists interaction between the fabrics in the cutting process.

In this paper, the drop test on cotton and polyester fabrics were conducted when 0.5ml and 2ml water dropped on fabric at an ambient temperature of 20 ± 1 °C, relative humidity levels of 65 ± 2%, and an air velocity of 0 to 0.2m/s. The temperature changes on these fabrics were measured. The results showed that it cost much time of 2ml water than 0.5ml water dropped on two kinds of fabrics. As cotton fabric, when 0.5ml water dropped on fabric, the temperature at point 1 changes little than polyester fabric, this isbecause cotton absorbed much water than polyester, there is little water transport to the distance of 6cm. Either 0.5ml or 2ml water dropped on fabric, the time for polyester fabric is shorter than that of cotton fabric, this can be seen the property of drying-fast of polyester fabric.

The aim of this study was to understand the pull-out properties of E-glass woven fabrics. For this purpose, low yarn linear density E-Glass-F1 and high yarn linear density E-Glass-F2 woven fabrics were used to conduct the pull-out tests. A developed yarn pull-out fixture was used to test short and long fabric sample dimensions. Data generated from the single and multiple yarn pull-out tests using E-Glass-F1 and E-Glass-F2 woven fabrics included fabric pull-out forces, yarn crimp extensions in the fabrics and fabric displacements. Yarn pull-out forces depend on yarn linear density, fabric density, fabric sample dimensions and the number of pulled ends in the fabric. Results showed that multiple yarn pull-out force was higher than single yarn pull-out force. Single and multiple yarn pull-out forces in high yarn linear density E-Glass-F2 were higher than those of low yarn linear density E-Glass-F1 fabric. It was found that the crimp ratio in the fabric and fabric lengths is an important structural parameter for yarn crimp extension. Fabric displacement resulting from the multiple yarn pull-out test was higher than that of the single yarn pull-out test. Fabric displacement generated from single and multiple pull-out tests depended on fabric sample dimensions and the number of pulled yarn ends. Future research will concentrate on the development of the analytical relationship between pull-out and yarn fabric structural parameters which could result in a better fabric structure for use in composite applications.

Full textAbstract:
The overall comfort of a bedding system is, among others, the result of the moisture and thermal management capabilities of its components, including mattress ticking fabrics. The hand of mattress ticking fabrics, their smoothness, softness, flexibility, and thermal properties, in particular, partially contribute to the sleep quality. Manufacturers pay a great deal of attention to this aspect and make efforts to improve fabric hand as customers always touch and squeeze the fabric and the perceived fabric hand will partially influence their buying decision. In this study the hand of 12 mattress fabrics was investigated by the Fabric Touch Tester (FTT), which is a relatively new characterization method of fabric hand. The FTT measures simultaneously 13 fabric indices related to four categories of fabric physical properties, namely bending, compression, and thermal and surface properties. These fabric indices are subsequently used by the FTT software to predict three primary comfort indices (i.e. smoothness, softness, warmth) and two global comfort indices (i.e. total hand and total feel). The fabrics were differentiated by three production parameters, namely fabric mass per unit area, concentration of softener and fiber composition. Relevant tactile properties for mattress ticking fabrics, such as smoothness, softness, warmth, and flexibility, were assessed by an expert panel and the average scores given by the assessors were correlated with the fabric indices measured by the FTT. Among the selected variables, fabric mass per unit area has the greatest influence on all FTT fabric indices. Due to the large fabric set, considerable variances were observed between the scores assigned by the panels. That resulted in poor correlations between tactile properties and selected production parameters, although the trend seems to be correct and all the factors were found to be statistically significant. Strong correlations were found between the FTT fabric indices and tactile properties assessed by the panels, except warmth, which suggests that the FTT is suitable to assess mattress ticking fabrics with elevated mass per unit area and uneven texture.

AbstractSingle-layered warp knitted fabrics were produced by the 60D/36F (containing 36 filaments) polyester yarn with differential shrinkage (DS) property in this study. Due to the differential shrinkage property, the fabric becomes curly and bulkier, simulating cotton fabric in terms of its appearance and fabric handle. The performance and appearance of these DS polyester warp knitted fabrics were evaluated objectively and subjectively. The testing results demonstrated that the DS polyester warp knitted fabric had better abrasion property, worse pilling resistance due to the mechanical property of polyester yarn when compared with 100% cotton warp knitted fabric. Meanwhile, lower water vapour permeability and air resistance were found for DS polyester warp knitted fabric resulting from the dense structure of yarn shrinkage after heat-moisture treatment. Besides, the fabric handle was evaluated by Kawabata evaluation system and subject to trial under dry and wet fabric condition. DS polyester warp knitted fabrics provide better recovery under low stress mechanical pressure. The subjective evaluation result shows that the warp knitted fabrics made of DS polyester had similar handle against cotton warp knitted fabric in terms of prickle, smooth, comfort and dry feeling in both dry and wet testing conditions.

In the present paper, a study of the effects of fabric weight, fiber cross-sectional shapes (round, hollow and trilobal) and presence of reinforcing material on the compression properties (initial thickness, percentage compression, percentage thickness loss and percentage compression resilience) of polyester needle punched industrial nonwoven fabrics is presented. It was found that for fabrics with no reinforcing material, the initial thickness, compression, and thickness loss were higher than fabrics with reinforcing material, irrespective offiber cross-section. Compression resilience data showed the reverse trend. Initial thickness for trilobal cross-sectional fabric sample was highest followed by round and hollow cross-sectioned polyester needle punched fabrics. The polyester fabric made from hollow cross-sectioned fibers showed the least percentage compression at every level of fabric weights. The trilobal cross-sectioned polyester fabric sample showed higher thickness loss followed by round and hollow cross-sectioned polyester fabric samples respectively. The hollow cross-sectioned polyester fabric samples showed maximum compression resilience followed by round and trilobal cross-sectioned polyester samples irrespective of fabric weights. The initial thickness increases, but percentage compression, thickness loss and compression resilience decreases with the increase in fabric weight irrespective of fiber cross-sectional shapes.

Full textAbstract:
Felting shrinkage of untreated wool fabric occurs easily during tumble drying. Mechanical action applied on fabrics plays a significant part in felting shrinkage of wool fabric. In general, the more severe the mechanical action of a washing or drying machine, the more rapid the felting shrinkage. However, both the degree and type of mechanical action applied on the fabric can influence felting shrinkage of untreated wool fabric. In the current study, fabric movement and felting shrinkage of untreated wool fabric at different rotation speeds of the drum in a tumble dryer without heating were studied. Based on the different fabric movements at different rotation speeds of the tumble drum, the extents of impact and rubbing forces at different rotation speeds were assessed by ranking. The total mechanical action applied on the fabric was expressed as the percentage of thread removal of “thread removal fabric” during the drying process. The results showed that lowest mechanical force on fabrics could be achieved when higher rotation speeds of the drum were used to dry wool fabrics in the tumble dryer, and could prevent wool felting shrinkage. It was also found that falling of the fabric followed by impact on the drum wall caused less felting shrinkage than sliding with rubbing between fabrics. Therefore, maintaining the falling movement could be a potential method to dry wool fabric in drying machines without causing severe felting shrinkage.

Spirality arising from loop distortion in single-jersey knitted fabrics is discussed. Test methods for measuring fabric spirality in knitted fabrics are outlined. Results of an experimental investigation are statistically analyzed considering the effects of yarn/fabric construction factors on the spirality behavior of laboratory produced single-jersey fabrics. The study reveals that the steady-state loop shape for the washed/tumbledried knitted specimens is not unique. Accordingly, the construction factors considered in the statistical analyses are yarn linear density, yarn twist factor, fabric tightness factor, and fabric loop shape. The analyses reveal the importance of the yarn twist factor as well as the fabric tightness factor in promoting fabric spirality. Multiple linear regression equations of practical importance for predicting fabric spirality are derived from the experimental results.

The thermal properties of a certain fabric govern its end usage. The enhanced thermal resistance can help to use light weight fabric for cold conditions. The aim of this study was the development fabric with a particular structural design having enhanced thermal resistance, without any change in the constituent materials or any extra process. Fabric samples were produced using cotton and core spun elastane yarns along weft, in a specific sequence. The fabrics had either a flat or puckered appearance, depending on the arrangement of weft yarns. It was observed that the percentage of core spun yarns and fabric thickness had a significant effect on the thermal resistance of fabrics. A valuable difference in the thermal resistance of flat and seersucker (puckered) fabrics, having same construction was observed. It was found to be the effect of the characteristic puckered effect of the seersucker fabric. Statistical models were developed to predict the thermal resistance of flat fabrics using core spun yarns percentage and fabric thickness.

In order to examine the changes in the appearance properties and the post-adhesion appearance properties of Hanji yarn blended fabrics : 100% Hanji yarn fabric, two kinds of cotton / Hanji yarn blended fabrics and 100% cotton fabric, were selected and fused with three kinds of interlinings. After fusing, changes of standardized KES values were examined.<br/>1. W/T, B/W of Hanji yarn blended fabrics was higher than that cotton fabric. WC/W, 2HB/W, 2HB/B, and 2HG/G values of Hanji yarn blended fabrics are lower than cotton fabric. This means that the Hanji yarn was mixed, shape retention, wrinkle recovery was improved, and the drape property was lowered. 2. After fusing, W/T, shape retention, wrinkle recovery of Hanji yarn blended fabrics increased, and WC/W values of Hanji yarn blended fabrics decreased. The wrinkle recovery property of Hanji yarn blended fabrics were improved; however, the 2HG/G value of Hanji yarn fabric increased due to fusing, and the wrinkle recovery property of Hanji yarn fabric decreased. 3. In the selection of adhesive core, I1 adhesive core is excellent in terms of shape stability and wrinkle recovery; however, an I3 adhesive core is recommended for drape and silhouette formation. When the fabric of the adhesive core was PET, it was found to penetrate better between the fabrics during adhesion than the case of cotton fabrics.

Abstract Thermal protective clothings are produced from multilayered textile materials. Fabric layers need to allow enough evaporation of perspiration, ventilation, and also thermal protection from fire. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of different fabric layers and their different combinations on the thermal properties of multilayered fabric samples. Three-layered fabric combinations were created using two types of outer shell fabrics, four types of moisture barrier fabrics with membrane, and two types of thermal barrier fabrics. Sixteen different fabric combinations that simulate three-layered thermal protective clothing were studied. As a result of the study, it was found that thermal and moisture comfort properties were significantly affected by different fabric layers.

Full textAbstract:
This study examined the effects of the fiber materials, fabric structural parameters, and surface modification method on the moisture vapor resistance of coated and laminated fabrics according to the measuring method in comparison with evaporative wet heat transfer method. The moisture vapor resistance (Ref) of the coated and laminated fabrics measured using evaporative wet heat transfer method was much more precise than water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) and water vapor permeability (WVP) measured using American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS) methods. The correlation coefficient between Ref and WVTR in the laminated and coated polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fabric specimens was the highest, i.e., −0.833, and −0.715, in coated fabric specimens. Hence, selecting an appropriate measuring method according to the fabric materials and surface modification method is very critical. According to curvilinear regression analysis, the influential factor affecting breathability of the PET fabric specimens measured using evaporative wet heat transfer method was fabric weight (R2 = 0.847) and fabric thickness (R2 = 0.872) in the laminated fabric specimens. Meanwhile, as per multiple linear regression, the most influential fabric structural parameters affecting the breathability of laminated fabric specimens measured using evaporative wet heat transfer method were the fabric density, weight/thickness, and weight followed by the fabric thickness (R2 = 0.943). These results would be valid for laminated breathable fabrics with characteristics within the range of this study and are of practical use for engineering laminated fabrics with high breathability.

Full textAbstract:
An examination is presented of the relevance of luxury to the wool textile and garment supply chain. This examination leads to a review of the concept and importance of fabric handle as a means of defining important aspects of fabric quality. Examples are given for woven fabrics of the general relationships between subjectively assessed fabric handle attributes such as fabric softness and smoothness and measured low stress, generally high deformation, fabric properties such as fabric bending rigidity and extensibility. A brief overview is presented of the development of a system for predicting a set of subjectively assessed handle attributes for next-to-skin knitted fabrics from measurable fabric properties. Seven handle attributes selected by experienced assessors as being important for defining tactile sensations associated with next-to-skin knitted fabrics were: fabric smoothness, hairiness, softness, tightness, dryness, warmth and weight. Subjective assessments on a 1–10 scale of these seven attributes, plus an assessment of overall handle, were conducted by 12 experienced assessors on 74 next-to-skin knitted fabrics. The precision of the mean assessment of the 12 assessors ranged between 0.8 and 1.1, indicating that there was sufficient consensus on key fabric handle assessments to justify development of a method for predicting them from measurements of the physical properties of fabrics. All fabrics were tested using the PhabrOmeter fabric evaluation system, which records the force exerted during insertion of a fabric into and through an orifice. Geometric parameters were derived to describe the PhabrOmeter force-displacement curve results, and statistical models were developed to predict the average handle assessments of the 12 assessors. The precision of the models in predicting the handle intensities of eight fabric attributes on an independent validation set of 22 fabrics was significantly better than the precision of an individual assessor (confidence limits = 1.4–2.6 and 2.5–3.8, for predicted and assessed ratings, respectively). A case is made that this technology has the potential to assist in the growth of new markets for Merino wool products.

Full textAbstract:
In this study, stainless steel/viscose blended yarn was prepared and different structured woven fabrics were prepared for studying the moisture transmission and electromagnetic shielding behaviour. By doubling viscose spun yarn with SS filament yarn, the SS/viscose blended yarn was prepared. The woven fabrics were made in a sample loom using viscose yarn and SS/viscose blended yarn. By changing the metal content, thread density and conductive fibre proportions at different levels, the developed fabrics were analyzed for maximum shielding effectiveness in the frequency of 300 kHz to 1.5 GHz. The fabric having conductive threads in warp and weft directions showed larger shielding effectiveness (SE) compared to fabric having conductive threads in one direction. The increase in weft density, proportions of conductive threads (in weft direction) and metal content increases the shielding level of fabric. The highest SE of 56 dB was observed for plain woven fabric compared to 3/1 twill, 2/2 twill and 2/2 basket fabrics in the frequency of 700 MHz. The influence of environmental factors such as relative humidity and pH on shielding behaviour of fabrics were also studied. As the relative humidity was increased, the SE was also increased. The fabric treated with acidic (or) basic condition exhibited better SE than the fabric in neutral condition. Similarly, air permeability and water vapour transmission characteristics of the developed conductive fabrics were also analyzed. The air permeability of the fabric was higher when the metal content in the fabric was low. The fabric having more floats showed higher air permeability compared to fabrics with less floats. Similarly, the water vapour transmission rate was also high for long float fabrics. The developed conductive fabrics could be used as wall covering and personal protective clothing in defense industry.

In this paper, the influence of thermal fixation of woven interlining on the quality of woven fabrics, evaluated from the aspect of their dc volume electrical resistivity, was investigated. The plain weave fabrics made from cotton, flax, viscose, polyester, and cotton/polyester blends and 3/1S twill weave fabric obtained from cotton and polyester fibers blend were investigated. A cotton fabric with a point-applied thermoplastic binder was used as an interlining. The obtained results showed that the dc volume electrical resistivity of fabrics is influenced by their chemical composition, type of weave, type of yarn, fabric density which is especially pronounced in the interlining, the process of thermal fixation of the interlining, and ambient air humidity. The thermal fixation of the woven interlining greatly reduces the dc volume electrical resistivity of polyester fabric (499 times in the warp direction and 860 times in the weft direction), and increases the resistivity of other fabrics in the range of 1.3 times for viscose fabric and fabric obtained from cotton and polyester fibers blend in plain weave to 3.9 times for twill weave fabric. Based on the conducted investigation, it can be concluded that the quality of the tested fabrics evaluated from the aspect of their electrical resistivities, was significantly improved in the case of polyester fabric i.e worsens in the other investigated fabrics after thermal fixation of the woven interlining.

Abstract Data analysis relating to a fabric’s compression properties can only be carried out when the limits of compression are known. The study of the compressibility of woven fabrics was initiated with Peirce, Kemp & Hamilton’s approach to circular yarns and flattened yarns of a fabric under pressure. The fit of the pressure-thickness relationship is being improved using the exponential interpolation & extrapolation methods, as well as iterative methods such as the Marquardt algorithm for fitting the curves. Although there is a recent trend towards the automation of studying the structure-property relationship of textile fabrics, an objective and efficient method for predicting properties with a rapid prototype that outputs to sophisticated instruments such as the KES-FB3 is essential. This characterisation of data for fabric materials will help maintain companies’ commercial experience and expertise. This established predicting model can provide guidance to fabric manufacturers, fashion designers and ?[makers-up] in fabric design, fabric selection and the proper use of fabrics. This approach will make online fabric sourcing more realistic. Fabric sourcing experts are now visiting supplier’s websites for tracking fabrics. Overall, this approach provides an opportunity to generate a dynamic database of fabric properties, and hence may result in the development of new fabrics or the updating of existing fabrics to keep pace with fashion.

Fabric non-iron pleat plasticity is a shaping element of garment. In order to better grasp the performance, its quantitative evaluation method was designed in the paper. It was believed that fabric non-iron pleat plasticity was actually the crease retention of fabric, therefore, crease retention ratio was used for characterizing the fabric non-iron pleat plasticity. The results showed that, all of "PTT shape memory fabrics", PET imitation memory fabrics and cotton fabrics had higher crease retention ratios; followed by Nylon fabrics, next was silk fabrics; wool fabrics had the smallest crease retention ratios. The results proved that crease retention ratios of different kinds of fabrics differ substantially, and the index could basically reflect the non-iron pleat plasticity of different kinds of fabrics.

The organic photovoltaic wire is a flexible, lightweight and wire shaped organic photovoltaic fiber based on bulk hetero-junction nanocomposites. The power conversion characteristics of photovoltaic fabrics developed were thoroughly investigated. It was found that the power conversion efficiency of the photovoltaic fabric depends on the incident light quality; fabric cover factor, swatch size, and fabric weave structure. This study also includes photovoltaic fabric model for understanding the effects of different fabric geometry on power conversion efficiency of photovoltaic fabrics. The model predicts the performance of the photovoltaic fabrics with different shape, size and structures, and it provides design criteria for more efficient photovoltaic fabric device.

AbstractFabric quality and performance is assessed subjectively by the customer using an important and complex phenomenon of fabric hand. Objectively, it is evaluated with complicated and expensive instruments, such as Kawabata Evaluation System for Fabrics (KES-F) and Fabric Assurance with Simple Testing (FAST). The present research explores a non-touch objective approach, i.e., three-dimensional (3D) drape model to estimate fabric hand. Fabric hand prediction was testified on different commercial fabrics spanning a wide range of areal weight, thickness, yarn count, and fabric density. Fabric objective ranks based on drape indicators using principal component analysis (PCA) were compared with subjective ranks of fabric hand. Additionally, fabric drape is evaluated three dimensionally and a new drape indicator drape height (DH) is proposed. The cosine similarity results have proved fabric drape as an objective alternate to fabric hand.

Fabric quality detection and classification plays a very important role for the automatic detection in fabrics. Using wavelet transform, this study intends to analyze the fabric image and work out the type feature of fabric texture; and then through Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS), the study tries to distinguish and classify the texture of fabrics, mainly of knited fabric, printed fabric, stain fabric and plain weave fabric. The approach of TOPSIS is applied in analyzing the correlation among random factor sequence of feature indexes after some data processing, and determining its texture type of the designated fabric on the basis of the highest correlative degree. Experiment findings show that the automatic recognizing system of fabric types discussed in this study is capable of recognizing four different textile images.

Surface-engineered coatings have been increasingly applied to functionalize fabrics due to the ease of deposition of the coatings and their effectiveness in endowing the fabric with abundant properties. Among the surface modification methods, layer-by-layer (LbL) self-assembly has emerged as an important approach for creating multifunctional surfaces on fabrics. In this review, bibliometric analysis with the visualization analysis of LbL self-assembly coatings on fabrics was performed on publications extracted from the Web of Science (WOS) from 2005 to 2021 based on the CiteSpace software. The analysis results showed that research on LbL self-assembly coatings on fabrics has attracted much attention, and this technique has plentiful and flexible applications. Moreover, research on the LbL self-assembly method in the field of functionalization of fabrics has been summarized, which include flame retardant fabric, antibacterial fabric, ultraviolet resistant fabric, hydrophobic fabric and electromagnetic shielding fabric. It was found that the functionalization of the fabric has been changing from singularity to diversification. Based on the review, several future research directions can be proposed. The weatherability, comfort, cost and environmental friendliness should be considered when the multifunctional coatings are designed.
