Physical test

Stretch & Recovery Test

Stretch and recovery testing is used to determine the stretch, comfort and fit of a fabric, as well as understanding how well the fabric recovers.

Bursting Strength

This test method describes the measurement of the resistance of textile fabrics to bursting. The force required to rupture a fabric by distending it with a force applied at right angles to the plane of the fabric under specified conditions....

Tear strength

This test is designed to measure the required average force when tore a woven fabric. This test provides data to indicate the potential strength of the fabric within a product when the consumer uses that product. (a) Signle tongue: The...

Abrasion & Pilling in Textile

Abrasion is the surface wear caused by rubbing with another material. Pilling is the formation of small balls of entangled fibres on the surface of the fabric. Consumers would expect textiles and other products to withstand a certain amount of...

Tensile strength

Tensile testing is one of the most widely used physical tests for textiles and other materials. By measuring the force required to elongate a specimen to breaking point, the textile properties can be determined that will allow designers and quality...
