    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]

  3. Twist per inch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twist_per_inch

    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.

    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]

  5. Heatsetting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heatsetting

    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 test method evaluates the thermal resistance and water vapor permeability of fabrics, which bear on the garment's comfort. [115] [116] ISO 11092:2014 (the test for physiological effects — Test for measuring thermal resistance and water-vapor resistance) [117] ASTM F1868 (test for measuring thermal and evaporative resistance) [118]

  7. Units of textile measurement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_textile_measurement

    Textile fibers, threads, yarns and fabrics are measured in a multiplicity of units.. A fiber, a single filament of natural material, such as cotton, linen or wool, or artificial material such as nylon, polyester, metal or mineral fiber, or human-made cellulosic fibre like viscose, Modal, Lyocell or other rayon fiber is measured in terms of linear mass density, the weight of a given length of ...

    [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 ]
