Effect of Abrasion Process on Bagging Behavior of Cotton Woven Fabrics
Mohsen Shanbeh, Behnaz Baghaei, Nilufar Soheili nazhandAbstract
Abrasion is the mechanical deterioration of fabric components by rubbing them against another surface. Abrasion ultimately results in the loss of performance characteristics, such as strength, but it also affects the appearance of a fabric such as change in surface appearance, fading of color of the garment, failure of the seams of the garment. Bagging is a three-dimensional residual deformation, seen in used garments, which cause deterioration in the appearance of the garment. In this research, the influence of abrasion process as a process which affects the structural properties of fabrics on bagging fatigue of cotton woven fabrics in different weave patterns was evaluated. The method proposed by zhang was used for evaluation of bagging properties of samples. The bagging fatigue of fabrics was measured after 600 and 1600 abrasion cycles. The obtained results show that abrasion process and weave patterns had influence on bagging behavior of cotton woven fabrics.
Keywords: cotton woven fabrics, bagging behavior, abrasion resistance, bagging fatigue.
