Abstract:

This investigation deals with the fabric’s shrinkage ratio in both directions that is warp and weft), by grinding the effect ofeach of the warp and weft variables on the shrinkage ratio. These variables are the type, thickness, Yarntension andthe count of both warp and weft yarns in calculation to the weave structure. Afterwards test dissimilar types of these variables and establish that weft density relationship and weft count with shrinkage ratio toward warp is a positive relationship, while the connection shows the amount of weave float and Yarn tension of both warp and weft strand with shrinkage ratio towards warp is an inverse relationship. The warp thickness and warp count with shrinkage ratio towards weft relationship is a positive relationship, while the connection shows the amount of weave float and Yarn tension of both warp and weft thread with the shrinkage ratio towards weft is aninverse relationship. Finally, there is no consequence to the type of weave as if it was a satin or twill on the quantity offabric shrinkage in both directions. Using the SPSS statistical software solutions have been modeling the previous results and get the formula to calculate the fabric shrinkage ratio that takes into account all preceding variables.
