“…Compression can affect various characteristics of fabrics such as fabric hand, drape, bulkiness, comfort, and thermal insulation properties. 42 The compressibility features of fabrics are important in terms of final application, use, softness, handling, bending quality, tearing, drape, and overall quality. The higher the compressibility of woven and non-woven fabrics, the softer the fabric can be said.…”

In this study, the thermophysiological comfort and objective hand properties of modal, Naia™, cashmere, and cotton containing denim fabrics were investigated. Therefore, the air permeability, thermal conductivity, thermal absorptivity, thermal resistance, water vapor permeability, overall flexural rigidity, and compressibility of the fabrics were examined. It was concluded that using Naia™ sustainable fiber improved the thermal comfort and objective hand properties of denim fabrics. The elastane containing fabrics (T5 and T6) were uncomfortable because of their lower air permeability, lower water vapor permeability and higher overall flexural rigidity properties. Sulfur dyeing only affects the thermal resistance of fabrics, and the thermal resistance of sulfur dyed fabrics is higher than that of indigo dyed fabrics with the same compositions.

“…In practice thickness measurements are rarely used as they are very sensitive to the pressure used in the measurement (Saville, 1999). (Saville, 1999) Fabric thickness is generally evaluated by measuring the distance between two parallel plates separated by a fabric sample, with a known arbitrary pressure applied and maintained between the plates (Majumdar & Saha, 2008;as cited in BS Handbook, 1974). Figure 5 shows the change in thickness with pressure for a soft fabric together with the recovery in thickness as the pressure is removed.…”

“…Haven used a new fabric thickness-measurer [3], Shiefer used a compressometer for thickness and resilience measurements [4]. The non-contacting measurements [5,6] (optical) were too heavy to be fixed on the fabric without deforming it. It came out that the fabric should carry the sensor during the test.…”

Woven fabric thickness (t) is its third dimension, which is considerably smaller than the fabric width and length, but at the same time it is very important because it affects the usage and properties of the fabric. During stretching, the fabric thickness is changing depending on the value of the tensile force. In an effort to be as precisely as possible to measure dynamic thickness changes of the fabric, and simultaneously collect all the required values about the change of the tensile force, extension and the area on which tensile force acts, new measuring apparatus are designed and manufactured. This measuring apparatus allows the simultaneous measurement of dynamic thickness of fabric, the fabric contraction and related tensile axial forces.
