The test method evaluates the thermal resistance and water vapor permeability of fabrics, which bear on the garment's comfort. [25] [26] ISO 11092:2014 (the test for physiological effects — Test for measuring thermal resistance and water-vapor resistance) [27] ASTM F1868 (test for measuring thermal and evaporative resistance) [28]
The different test methods are used as per the final destination of the product (Europe, U.S.A., etc.) and the expected washing or laundry methods in practice. Mainly I.S.O. and AATCC standards are used for shrinkage testing. There are few brands which are customizing the test method as per their quality norms. Test Method(s): [10]
[6] [7] For example standard test methods for visually inspecting and grading fabrics (ASTM D5430) [8] and four-point system. Today, the 4-point system is the most commonly used fabric inspection system which as implied by the name, works with a 1 to 4 deduction system in which the highest defect rating is 4 points. [9]
Heat setting is a term used in the textile industry to describe a thermal process usually taking place in either a steam atmosphere or a dry heat environment. The effect of the process gives fibers, yarns or fabric dimensional stability and, very often, other desirable attributes like higher volume, wrinkle resistance or temperature resistance.
The amount of twist in a yarn helps to define the style of yarn – a yarn with a lot of air such as a woollen-spun yarn will have much less twist than a yarn with little air such as a worsted-spun yarn. The amount of twist also affects the yarn in terms of stretchiness, strength, halo, and many other attributes.
