Description
Summary:The paper reports on the abrasion and tensile tests conducted on five automotive car seat fabrics manufactured in Malaysia. The work would mainly focus on how much fabric tensile would change after being exposed to some period of abrasion work on fabric surface. In the work, fabrics were exposed at five different abrasion levels that increased progressively. Tensile test was conducted on all the abraded samples to measure on how much fabric strength has detoriated or changed. The data was recorded in terms of percentage of tensile loss from its original strength. The work recorded very strong correlation of determination and coefficient of correlation values. This would indicate that fabric strength can be determined by abrasion process. This would provide a useful tool to engineer suitable fabric properties especially for automotive fabric application since abrasion performance is one of the crucial requirement in car.
