Common Standards for the Martindale Pilling Test

Abrasion resistance is an important indicator of the quality of textile products, which directly affects the durability and use effect of the product. Specifically, it refers to the property of resistance to abrasion between fabrics or with other fabrics in the process of repeated friction.

The wear of textile products is mainly reflected in the following five aspects:

(1) During the friction process, the fibers collide continuously, and the fiber fragments in the yarn are broken by fatigue Breakage occurs, resulting in breakage of the yarn.

(2) The fibers are pulled out of the fabric, loosening the yarn and structure of the fabric, and the fibers can be fully pulled out with repeated action, resulting in thinner yarns, thinner fabrics and even disintegration.

(3) The fiber is cut and broken, resulting in the yarn breaking.

(4) HThe surface of the fiber is worn and the surface layer of the fiber is fragmented and lost.

(5) Friction causes high temperatures, causing the fiber to melt or plastically deform, which affects the structure and mechanical properties of the fiber.

Wear and tear is reflected in the morphological changes of the fabric, which are mainly damage, loss of quality, discoloration of the appearance and changes in pilling and pilling.

There are many methods to test the abrasion resistance of textile products, such as surface grinding, curved grinding, hem grinding and composite grinding. The Martindale method is a kind of surface grinding method, which is widely used in the detection of wear resistance of clothing, home textiles, decorative fabrics and upholstery fabrics.
