Abstract
Consumers use their sense of touch instinctively to evaluate a garment's quality and faculty for specific use. The roughness of textiles is an important parameter for customers' choice of garments. This work focused on surface roughness of woven fabrics. A Textile Surface Tester (TST) was used in this study. For surface height variation (SHV) characterization, the standard roughness parameters described in the ISO 4287 was frequently used. During this analysis, we examined the effect of different parameters of manufacturing and finishing samples on the variation in surface roughness. It was found that the fabric type had an important effect on surface roughness as well as the weft count of woven samples, while chemicals treatments, as coating with different commercial products via ink-jet printing and drying processes, did not affect this parameter.
