Abstract:

In order to better understand pilling of polyester/cotton woven fabrics, a geometric model of the fabric showing hairiness was established by using PYTHON language with ABAQUS, on the basis of the measured the distribution characteristics of hairiness during pilling. The finite element simulation model for fabric pilling were validated using experimental data, and the differences in pilling grades between the simulated and the experimental results is about 7.4%, which proves the feasibility of finite element simulation. The effects of elastic modulus of polyester fibers on pilling grades and energy absorption form of pilling were analysed. The results indicate that when the elastic modulus of polyester fibers is increased, the pilling grade of polyester/cotton woven fabric is reduced. Friction dissipation energy is the main form of energy absorption during pilling of polyester/cotton woven fabrics.

Key words: polyester/cotton woven fabric, balling and pilling, finite element simulation, fiber elastic modulus, friction dissipation energy
