Automobile upholstery fabrics are regularly exposed to various deformations because of
their usage conditions in the cars. Abrasion, being one of these deformations, occurs by
various rubbing forces such as sitting, cleaning, etc. In addition to the physical
deformations occurring in the structure of fabrics, such as fiber and yarn breakage, pilling
or rupture by force, changes in appearance and consequently color differences are
possible results of rubbing. In this study, polyester woven fabrics that are used in the
automotive industry as car interior furnishing were investigated at different abrasion levels
(500, 5000, 10,000 and 20,000) and changes in color and percentage reflectance values
were determined. The polyester fabrics differed from each other by their warp and weft
densities, warp and weft yarn counts and fabric weave patterns. The fabric that has been
abraded in each level was compared with its original state and reflectance and color
difference values were determined. It was observed that surface color coordinates changed
as the yarn float length of the different weave patterns changed and color differences
increased as the yarn float lengths increased. Compact fabric structures with high yarn
crossing numbers (yarn intersections) were found resistant to the effects of abrasion in
color terms. It was concluded that the fiber ends which occurred on the fabric surfaces
after abrasion affected the reflectance behavior of the surfaces in different manners
regarding the compactness of woven structures.
