Abstract

Technical textiles are subjected to forces in different directions. The aim of this work is to investigate the various physical properties of certain diced woven fabrics such as breaking strength, bursting strength and impact strength and their behaviors such as deformation, contact duration and absorbed energy during impact tests and to compare with those of plain woven fabric, the basic weave. It was observed that bursting and impact strengths of diced woven fabrics were higher than those of plain woven fabric, however breaking strengths of plain woven fabric along both warp and weft directions were higher than those of diced woven fabrics. In addition, the increases of yarn densities improved these physical properties of diced woven fabrics. The effects of the weave pattern, warp and weft densities on these physical properties of plain and diced woven fabrics were also evaluated by variance analyses by means of SPSS 15.0 software package.
