What are the 5 types of fabric flexibility test?

Fabric flexibility test is an important part of textile testing. It can evaluate the flexibility of fabrics and is one of the important indicators to measure the quality of fabrics. According to different test methods, Fabric flexibility test can be divided into the following five categories.

1. Hanging method test: 

Hanging method test is a simple and easy test method, which evaluates the flexibility of fabrics by hanging a certain length of fabric under specific conditions and measuring its sagging length. This method is suitable for light fabrics, such as shirting cloth, tulle, etc.

2. Bending test method test: 

Bending test method test is a commonly used test method, which evaluates the flexibility of fabrics by bending a certain length of fabric at a certain angle and measuring its bent length. This method works on all types of fabrics.

3. Tensile test method test: 

Tensile test method test is a commonly used test method, which evaluates the flexibility of fabrics by stretching a certain length of fabric to a certain extent, measuring its stretched length and elastic recovery rate performance. This method works on all types of fabrics.

4. Folding test method test: 

The folding test method test is a simple and easy test method. It evaluates the flexibility of the fabric by repeatedly folding a certain length of fabric and measuring its folded length and elastic recovery rate. This method works on all types of fabrics.

5. Fatigue test method test: 

Fatigue test method test is a relatively complicated test method. It measures the length and elastic recovery rate of a certain length of fabric after repeated operations such as bending and stretching. To evaluate the flexibility properties of fabrics. This method is suitable for various types of fabrics, but requires more professional testing equipment and technology.

To sum up, Fabric flexibility test is an important link in textile testing, and different testing methods are suitable for different types of fabrics. Manufacturers can choose suitable test methods according to their own needs to evaluate the flexibility of fabrics and improve product quality.
