Method for testing shrinkage rate of woolen sweaters

Wool sweaters have excellent elasticity, warmth retention and moisture absorption, soft luster and soft hand feeling, but they also have disadvantages such as poor dimensional stability, easy wrinkling, and easy deformation. The dimensional stability of woolen sweaters is the key to the quality of woolen sweaters, which can only be shown after wearing and washing. It has a certain degree of concealment and directly affects the wearability of sweaters. Only by selecting appropriate yarns and organizational structure, determining a reasonable finished product density and a reasonable selection of blank density, can the dimensional stability of the sweater be effectively improved. This article introduces the testing method for the shrinkage rate of woolen sweaters, hoping to provide a reference for manufacturers or textile testing departments. (For other textile functional testing programs, please move to: http://www.gnxcs.com/newslist/list-110-1.html) 1. Test samples of a certain brand woolen sweater fabric 2.
