“…Fabric abrasion resistance was reported to be higher for longer polyester and combed cotton fibers compared to shorter polyester and carded cotton fibers (Bhortakke, Nishimura, & Matsuo, 1997). The analysis of sets of fabrics of different woven constructions indicated that differences in abrasion resistance arise mainly from weave differences (Mehta et al, 1978;Ruppenicker, Sawhney, Calamari, & Harper, 1997). The plain weave fabrics were best suited for high flex abrasion resistance.…”

“…The plain weave fabrics were best suited for high flex abrasion resistance. Twill and sateen fabrics had lower flex abrasion resistance than the corresponding plain fabrics (Mehta et al, 1978). Akgun et al reported that compact fabric structures with high yarn crossing numbers (yarn intersections) were more resistant to the effects of abrasion.…”

Effect of abrasion on surface roughness properties of textured polyester woven fabrics has been investigated. The effects of weft density, weft yarn filament number, fiber fineness, and weave pattern on surface roughness after abrasion were studied. Surface roughness values of control fabric (not abraded) and abraded fabrics after four different abrasion cycles were discussed according to different constructional parameters. Surface roughness values of fabrics changed according to abrasion cycles and the changes were related to yarn float lengths, yarn densities, yarn fiber fineness, and initial fabric surface roughness. A general overview of the results showed that abrasion eliminated the effect of texture especially at the fabric samples with initially high surface roughness. The surface roughness of fabrics with initially high surface roughness decreased at a greater extent than the ones with low surface roughness after abrasion. Fabrics with high surface roughness were affected more by abrasion and the effect of abrasion on rough surfaces depended on different manners regarding the compactness of woven structures.

“…It can be said, therefore, that the warp yarns contribute to the longitudinal properties of a woven textile, and the weft yarns contribute to the transverse properties [36]. In some woven structures, particularly nontechnical textiles, the warp yarns typically have a higher tensile strength than weft yarns [37] and this relates to the degree of crimp present in the yarns after weaving. During the weaving process, warp yarns are held under tension and weft yarns are passed under and over at 90 • .…”

Automotive upholstery fabrics have direct contacts with the human beings in the cars and they affect the comfort of the journeys. As one-quarter of the human body contacts Abstract Automobile upholstery fabrics are regularly exposed to various deformations because of their usage conditions in the cars. Abrasion, being one of these deformations, occurs by various rubbing forces such as sitting, cleaning, etc. In addition to the physical deformations occurring in the structure of fabrics, such as fiber and yarn breakage, pilling or rupture by force, changes in appearance and consequently color differences are possible results of rubbing. In this study, polyester woven fabrics that are used in the automotive industry as car interior furnishing were investigated at different abrasion levels (500, 5000, 10,000 and 20,000) and changes in color and percentage reflectance values were determined. The polyester fabrics differed from each other by their warp and weft densities, warp and weft yarn counts and fabric weave patterns. The fabric that has been abraded in each level was compared with its original state and reflectance and color difference values were determined. It was observed that surface color coordinates changed as the yarn float length of the different weave patterns changed and color differences increased as the yarn float lengths increased. Compact fabric structures with high yarn crossing numbers (yarn intersections) were found resistant to the effects of abrasion in color terms. It was concluded that the fiber ends which occurred on the fabric surfaces after abrasion affected the reflectance behavior of the surfaces in different manners regarding the compactness of woven structures.
