The main focus of the study is mechanical properties of cotton woven fabrics
different fabric structures for similar raw materials and machines the researchers
to produced four sample fabrics in KTSC with plain, 2/2 twill, 3/1 twill and 3-end
satin weave structure using for similar 27 Ne warp and 20 Ne weft counts. Due
to this research work effect of weave structures on various mechanical properties
of cotton woven fabrics was studied. One of the most important characteristics of
woven fabric is strength. Strength is also measured in tensile, tearing or
elongation. The findings of this study 3/1 twill, 2/2 twill and plain weave have high
breaking strength than satin weave. Because the three and two warp yarns share
all the force applied during this time the maximum force required to break the
three and two yarns at the same time need maximum force. In the case of plan
weave higher interlacement causes higher crimp and elongation due to this
reason plain weave high breaking strength than satin weaves. And too much
larger floats also cause lower breaking strength due to looser structure. Long
yarn floats and a low number of interlacing cause the continuous contact area of
one yarn strand to expand and this facilitates the yarn to lose its form more easily
by providing easier movement as a result of the rubbing motion. So long floats in
a weave such as satin structures are more exposed abrade and pilling faster. But
the fabrics that have lower floats such as flat plain and 2/2 twill weave fabrics
have better abrasion and pilling resistance than satin and 3/1 twill weaves. a
group of yarn float on the fabric would share the applied force in the satin weave
increase the tear resistance where as in the plain fabric a single yarn would load
64N force due to this reason it was easily tear than the other woven fabric based
on this experiment the result shows twill weaves are the better strength,
moderate pilling and plain weave better abrasion resistance |
