Synopsis

This multiauthored collection addresses the effect of mechanical and physical properties on the way a fabric feels. It begins with concepts and understanding of fabric hand, covering development of fabric hand evaluation, the effect of fibre, yarn and fabric factors as well as finishing on hand, including the mechanical and physical properties. The latter part of the book goes on to cover statistical methods in evaluating hand and a comparison of hand evaluation in different cultures. It provides a comprehensive coverage of the effect of mechanical and physical properties on fabric hand.

Key Features: essential reading for all those working in apparel and fashion design, textile selection, fabric design and development and fabric manufacturers; covers statistical methods in evaluating hand and a comparison of hand evaluation in different cultures; looks at the effect processing has on fabric hand.

Contents: Part 1 Understanding and evaluating fabric hand: Concepts and understanding of fabric hand; Development in measurement and evaluation of fabric hand; Application of statistical methods in evaluation of fabric hand; Comparison of fabric hand evaluation in different cultures. Part 2 Effect of fiber and fabric factors on fabric hand; Effect of fiber factors on fabric hand; Effect of yarn factors on fabric hand; Effect of woven fabrics on the fabric hand of cotton and CO/PES fabrics assessed on the Instron tensile tester. Part 3 Effect of processing on fabric hand: Effect of wet processing and chemical finishing on fabric hand; Effect of mechanical finishing on fabric hand; Effect of refurbishing on fabric hand. Part 4 Appendices: Appendix A The standardization and analysis of hand evaluation (second edition); Appendix B, SiroFAST fabric assurance by simple testing.
