Textiles

Textiles

are any products made from fibers, including fabrics

Textiles in Interiors include: carpets, rugs, upholstery, curtains, tablecloths, towels, sheets, etc.Slide9

Textiles in the Home

Appearance

Overall visual effect

Durability

Ability to last

Maintenance

Care needed to keep fabrics clean and looking their best

Comfort

Visual and physical comfort

Ease of Construction

The ease with which the fabric is managed

Cost

Purchase the best fabric for its use; cheaper is not always betterSlide10

Fibers

Fibers

are the raw materials from which fabric is made

Two categories of Fibers: Natural and ManufacturedSlide11

Natural Fibers

Come from plant and animal sources

Two types: Cellulosic and ProteinSlide12

Cellulosic Natural Fibers

Come from the cellulose in plants

Absorbent, launder well, resist insect damage

Burn easily, stained by mildew, wrinkle easily

Examples:

Cotton- cotton plant

Linen- flax plant

Ramie- China grass

Kapok- Kapok tree

Refer to Table 13-1, Cellulosic Natural FibersSlide13

Cotton

Characteristics:

Absorbent

Strong

Dyes well

Shrinks in hot water

Uses

Sheets

Comforters

Rugs

Towels

Upholstery

DraperiesSlide14

Linen

Characteristics:

Strong

Wears Well

Uses

Tablecloth

Upholstery

Comforters

Kitchen Towels

DraperiesSlide15

Ramie

Characteristics:

Dyes well

High Gloss or shine

Shrinks

Uses

Table linensSlide16

Kapok

Characteristics:

Light

Soft

Not washable

Uses

Pillows and pad FillingSlide17

Protein Natural Fibers

Come from animal sources

Burn slowly, elastic

Resilient = return to original size and shape

Need to be dry-cleaned

Examples:

Silk- from silkworm cocoon

Wool- Hair of sheep

Animal Skins, Leather and Fur

Refer to Table 13-2, Protein Natural FibersSlide18

Silk

Characteristics:

Strong

Absorbent

Dyes Well

Lustrous

Water spots easily

Uses

Draperies

Lampshades

Wall Hangings

UpholsterySlide19

Wool

Characteristics:

Absorbent

Wrinkle resistant

Not moth resistant

Shrinks

Uses

Rugs

Curtains

Blankets

Draperies

UpholsterySlide20

Animal Skins, Leather, Fur

Today these are produced syntheticallySlide21

Manufactured Fibers

Come from wood cellulose, oil products, and other chemicals

Two categories: Cellulosic and Non-CellulosicSlide22

Manufactured Fibers

Launder Well, mothproof, non-allergenic

Examples

Acetate

Acrylic

Glass

Metallic

Modacrylic

Nylon

Olefin

Polyester

Rayon

Refer to Table 13-3, Manufactured FabricsSlide23

Nylon

Characteristics:

Strong

Resistant to Chemical Damage

Does not stretch, shrink or absorb water

Creates static electricity

Uses

Carpet

Curtains

Draperies

Slipcovers

Tablecloths

UpholsterySlide24

Rayon

Characteristics:

Highly Absorbent

Soft

Dyes Easily

Drapes well

Weak

Uses

Bedding

Draperies

Slipcovers

Tablecloths

UpholsterySlide25

Polyester

Characteristics:

Strong

Resistant to shrinkage, abrasion

Holds shape

Low absorbency

Heat Sensitive

Uses

Carpet

Bedding

Curtains

Draperies

Rugs

Tablecloths

UpholsterySlide26

Olefin

Characteristics:

Lightweight

Strong

Resistant to abrasion

Heat Sensitive

Nonabsorbent

Uses

Carpet Backing and Carpet

Slipcover

UpholsterySlide27

Acetate

Characteristics:

Drapes Well

Dyes Easily

Weak

Heat Sensitive

Uses

Bedspreads

Draperies

Upholstery

SheersSlide28

Acrylic

Characteristics:

Warm

Lightweight

Resists Wrinkles

Low absorbency

Heat Sensitive

Uses

Blankets

Carpets

Draperies

Rugs

UpholsterySlide29

Fabric Construction

Fibers are spun or twisted into

yarns

A yarn can be made from a single type of fiber or from two or more different fibers (blend)

Blends

bring out good qualities of some fibers and hide the bad qualitiesSlide30

Fabric Construction

Woven Fabrics- created by weaving yarns together.

Weaving – Interlacing of two sets of yarns at right angles to each

other

Knitted Fabrics- looping of yarns together

Single, double, jersey, rib, jacquard

Nonwoven

Fabrics-

joined together using heat, moisture, chemicals, friction, or pressure

Felt, vinyl, leather

Slide31

Fabric Construction

WOVEN KNITTED NONWOVENSlide32

Yarns

Weaving – Interlacing of two sets of yarns at right angles to each other

Warp- Lengthwise direction (up and down)

Weft- Filling yarns that run in the crosswise direction (right to left)

Slide33

Fabric Construction

Grain- The direction that yarns run in a woven fabric

Nap- Layer of fiber ends that stand up from the surface of the fabric

Appears different when viewed from different directions

Example: velvet

Slide34

Fabric Construction

Tomorrow we will look at the various types of weaves and knits!

Right now, lets finish the notes by looking at a few laws created in relation to Textiles…

Slide35

Laws

Textile

Fiber Products Identification Act

(1960)

sets

regulations regarding the advertising and labeling of textile fiber

products

http://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/textile/

textlact.htm

Wool

Products Labeling Act

(1939)

Requires

anyone who manufacturers or sells products containing wool to accurately label each item with the fiber content and

origin

http

://www.ftc.gov/os/statutes/textile/

woolact.htm

Flammable

Fabrics

Act (1953)

Regulates

the manufacture of highly flammable

fabric

Look at the tag in the back of your shirt (your neighbor can help you do this

 ) and write down the fibers in your shirt.Slide38

Types of Weaves

Plain Weave- simplest

Weft goes over and under each warp

Basket Weave

Similar to Plain weave

Two or more weft yarns are interlaced with two or more warp weavesSlide44

Types of Weaves

Slide45

Types of Weaves

Twill Weave

The warp or the weft yarn passes over two or more yarns

Each succeeding pass begins one yarn above or below the last one

Results in a WALE – diagonal rib pattern in the fabricSlide46

Types of WeavesSlide47

Types of Weaves

Satin Weave

Has long FLOATS or portions of yarn on the surface of fabric

The warp or the weft float over 4 or more opposite yarns

Each succeeding float begins two yarns away from the beginning of the last one

Results in a smooth and slippery fabricSlide48

Types of WeavesSlide49

Types of Weaves

Pile Weave

Variation of plain and twill weaves

Yarn loops or cut yarns that stand away from the base of the fabric

Pile fabrics have a nap

Examples- Velvet, Corduroy, Terry clothSlide50

Types of Knits

Jersey- one flat side and one piled side

Most common

T-shirts!

Rib- vertical stripes created by wales

Jacquard- created on an electric loom

Complex upholstery fabricsSlide51

Types of KnitsSlide52
