TX 142 FABRIC QUALITY EVALUATION

1. MECHANISM OF FABRIC FAILURE 9
Mode of fabric failure – tensile, tear, abrasion, bursting and fatigue. Influence of fibre, yarn characteristics and fabric structure on the fabric failure.

1. COMFORT PROPERTIES OF FABRICS 9

Role of transmission properties on thermal properties and thermal comfort. Viz., Air permeability, Water Vapour Permeability, Resistance to penetration of liquid water, resistance to flow of heat and electrical conductivity.

3. FABRIC APPEARANCE 9
Study of fabric appearance in terms of Drape, Crease Recovery, Wrinkle Recovery and Pilling Resistance. Influence of fibre, yarn characteristics and fabric structure on the fabric appearance.

1. LOW STRESS MECHANICAL PROPERTIES 9

Study of low stress mechanical properties during tensile, compression, bending, shear and buckling deformation. Influence of low stress mechanical properties of fabrics on fabric handle, tailorability and sewability.

5. OTHER PROPERTIES 9
Evaluation of fabric properties like Dimensional Stability, Flammability, Impact Resistance, Absorbency. Evaluation of technical textile fabrics for various applications.
