- ItemDetermining the light transmission of woven fabrics through different measurement methods and its correlation with air permeability(Technická Univerzita v Liberci, 2014) Haleem, Noman; Ibrahim, Sayed M.; Hussain, Tanveer; Jabbar, Abdul; Malik, Mumtaz Hassan; Malik, Zulfiqar AliThe study aims to present a relationship between air permeability of woven fabrics and their light transmission properties. Polyester / cotton (48:52) blended woven fabrics were utilized in the study. Air permeability is measured using the standard test method already established while the light transmission through the fabric is measured by means of two different methods. One method is based on measurement of light transmitted from a back lit fabric by means of a light sensor. The second method is based on image processing techniques which require a digital back lit image of fabric and an algorithm is applied to measure the amount of light transmitted through it. Results from both methods are compared and correlated with the air permeability and porosity of woven fabrics. Analysis shows that the results from former method have a stronger and more significant relationship with air permeability of woven fabrics comparatively. © 2014, Association Nonwoven Fabrics Industry.

- ItemImpact of Different Weft Materials and Washing Treatments on Moisture Management Characteristics of Denim(Inda, 2012) Mangat, Muhammad Mushtaq; Hussain, Tanveer; Bajzík, VladimírThe aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different types of weft yarn materials and washing treatments on the moisture management properties of denim fabrics. Fabrics were developed with five different types of weft yarns made of cotton, polyester, spun polypropylene, air-textured polypropylene and stuffer-box crimped polypropylene. In all cases 100% cotton yarn was used as warp. Samples from each fabric were subjected to 10 diverse types of washing/finishing treatments and the treated samples were tested for dissimilar moisture management indices on an SDL Atlas moisture management tester. The statistical analyses of the test data show that the effect of different types of weft yarns and washing treatments is significant. Based on the results of this study, denim fabrics can be developed with enhanced moisture management properties.
