Abstract
Warp-knitted brush fabrics are composed of an outer surface formed by weaving the front and rear needle beds with spacer yarns interposed between them. Warp-knitted brush fabrics can be used as a non-slip cover for car seat cushions; the adhesion between non-slip fabric and car seat is related to the shear strength of warp-knitted brush fabrics. In this article, to study the factors affecting the shear force of warp-knitted brush fabrics, three different processing methods and four different stretching speed intervals were used to find the effects of stiffeners and action of different speed intervals on shear properties of fabrics. The experimental results show that the stiffener treatment can improve the shear resistance of the warp-knitted brush fabrics, and the effect of different speed intervals can affect the shear resistance of fabrics. These findings will have a guiding significance in the design and production of warp-knitted brush fabrics applied to fabrics such as car seat cushions, and the results can also help to study the shear properties of warp-knitted brush fabrics for wider applications.
Highlights
The warp-knitted brush fabric is a three-layered threedimensional structure fabric, produced on a double-needle bed warp-knitting machine, composed of an outer surface formed by weaving the front and rear needle beds and spacer yarns interposed between them
The average tensile force peak at 50 mm/min tensile speed is 20.8% higher than the average tensile force peak at 30 mm/min tensile speed, and when the speed is increased to 65 mm/min, the peak average tensile force decreases
The results show that different tensile speed intervals will affect the tensile force–displacement curves of the sample group
Summary
The warp-knitted brush fabric is a three-layered threedimensional structure fabric, produced on a double-needle bed warp-knitting machine, composed of an outer surface formed by weaving the front and rear needle beds and spacer yarns interposed between them. The gray fabric was cut off using a slitting machine once the machine was lowered, and the spacing yarn forms short plush yarns on the two pieces of fabric. The warp-knitted brush fabric is similar to the hook-and-loop fastener in woven fabrics. The hook-and-loop fastener is known as Velcro. It is a bonding material that is widely used in clothing, shoes, hats, bags, sports equipment, and medical equipment. Some scholars have conducted some research on the structure and performance of Velcro or similar Velcro materials.
