Investigation of the Friction Coefficient of Seersucker Woven Fabrics

Journal Title: Fibres and Textiles in Eastern Europe - Year 2019, Vol 27, Issue 3

Abstract

At present, seersucker woven fabrics are increasingly used for the manufacturing of clothing. These fabrics are created in the weaving process as a result of the different tension of two sets of warp threads: basic and puckering. Seersucker woven fabrics applied in properly designed clothing have an ability to massage the body while wearing such clothing. In order to cinduct a detailed analysis of the massaging process during the clothing usage, it is necessary to examine the phenomena occurring during the massaging. Friction is one of the most important phenomena influencing the massaging process. Due to the nature of seersucker woven fabrics, measurement of the friction coefficient is difficult. This paper presents the problems related to measurement of the coefficient of friction for an exemplary seersucker fabric. The work contains a description of the measurement method proposed and the consequences resulting from its application.<br/><br/>
