This study conducted fabric-to-fabric abrasion tests on soft silk fabrics in dry and wet states, at 500 and 1000 cycles, and evaluated the burst strength of the abraded samples. Abrasion resistance of soft silk was also evaluated using wool abradant to determine the standard abrasion cycle. Yarn samples were taken from the abraded areas of 25%, 50%, and 75% of the standard abrasion cycles of soft silk fabrics, and the tensile strength was evaluated at dry and wet conditions to understand the extent of damage caused by abrasion.
Fabric-to-fabric abrasion was carried for soft silk fabrics at dry and wet state under 500 and 1000 cycles and abraded samples were evaluated for bursting strength. Abrasion resistance of soft silk was also evaluated with wool abradant to arrive at the standard abrasion cycle. Yarn samples were removed from the abraded areas of 25%, 50%, and 75% of standard abrasion cycles of soft silk fabrics and then tensile strength was evaluated at dry and wet condition to understand the extent of damage happened due to abrasion.
