Bi-elasticity

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Bi- elasticity is the ability of textile fabrics to be elastic in the transverse and longitudinal directions when exposed to external loads, ie that after the stress relief the textile sheet material fully or partially assumes the original dimensions before the stress.

The wearing properties of clothing textiles, such as the resistance of bulges on the knees and elbows, the tendency to crease or, in general, the shape and size stability after deforming loads, are influenced by the elastic properties. The morphological structure of the fibers as well as the construction of the yarns and fabrics have an influence on the elasticity.

The most suitable way to characterize the elasticity behavior of the mostly multi-axially stressed textile fabrics in use is the warping load, which can be determined from the results of the warping test.
