Document Summary

A holistic perspective, looking at more than single material performance. Incorporates material interactions: process-material interactions (stitching, fusing, user-product interaction (fit, function, environment-product interaction (cleaning, use) Components: made of two or more pieces that will be incorporated into product, examples; cuff, fashion fabrics, interlining, thread, fusible, standard test methods performance of seams, fused, laminated, or bonded fabrics. Fabric combinations: adhesives used to fuse, laminate, bond fabrics together, strength of adhesive bond important, aatcc 136 bond strength of bonded & laminated fabrics and astm 2724 bonded, Fused, & laminated apparel fabrics: bond strength tensile force oz/in or g/cm need to separate component layers, dimensional stability mark, wash, compare, dimensional change percent (average original distance average final distance)/average original distance x. 100: appearance evaluation for problems result of use/care, blister (bulge) delamination and shrinkage of underlayer, crack mark (sharp break) 2 layers not draped in same way, pucker (wrinkles) difference in shrinkage layers, delamination separation of layers of fabric.
