Quality Parameters of Woven Fabrics:
A woven fabric is produced by crossing the two thread systems of warp and weft. The thread crossing is called a woven pattern or weave texture. There are different quality parameters of woven fabric, for example, GSM, tear quality, elasticity, skewness test, bowing test, shrinkage test, pilling test, crimp percentage test which are legitimately or by implication relies upon fabric quality. There are some quality parameters of woven fabric are point out below.
1. Dimensional characteristics:
Length
Width
Thickness.
2. Weight of fabric:
Weight per unit area.
Weight per unit length.
3. Fabric strength and extensibility:
Tensile strength.
Tearing strength.
4. Threads per inch of fabric:
Ends per inch.
Picks per inch.
5. Yarn count:
Warp count
Weft count.
6. Crimp:
Warp crimp
Weft crimp.
7. Handle:
Stiffness
Drape.
8. Crease resistance and crease recovery.
9. Air permeability.
10. Abrasion resistance.
11. Water resistance.
12. Shrinkage.
13. Different fastness properties:
Fastness to light.
Fastness to wash.
Fastness to perspiration.
Fastness to Rubbing
