Abstract |
This study collected 4 kinds denims varied the processing and type, and then carried out 6 kinds of mechanical properties and fabric hand for 16 samples, different in washing-finished methods(bio, bio-stone, bio-stone- bleach), by using KES-FB system. The aim was to offer the objective sensibility of the washing-finished denims and the data for the clothing production in high-value added product. Mechanical properties of the non-stretch denim fabrics were high in LT, RT and G. The stretch denim fabrics were high in WT. Following the washing finishing, LC, WC, MIU increased as a whole. The bending characteristics and the shear characteristics reduced. As a result of the value in sensibility evaluation, the value in KOSHI was high in non-stretch denim fabrics but it reduced as a whole by following the washing finishing. The value in NUMERI was higher in the generally-finished material than the MR-finished material. Except the bleach washing, the value mostly increased following the washing finishing. The value in FUKURAMI was high in stretch denim fabrics and increased by the washing finishing. In the total fabric hand, the generally-finished stretch denim fabrics were the best before and after the washing finishing. Overall, the value in fabric hand was indicated to be enhanced following the washing finishing. |
