Research Regarding the Influence of Raw Material and Woven Fabric Geometry on the Air Permeability of Mattress

Properties of woven fabrics are influenced by many factors: the nature of raw materials, woven fabric geometry and density, technological parameters of the weaving operation and finishing. The main purpose of this research paper is to increase the performance of woven process during mattress manufacturing by choosing the right woven fabric geometry and raw material. The variation in air permeability depends on the area density, linear density, loop length and thickness of yarns. To obtain woven fabric samples were used several types of classic yarns, also ecological yarns like organic cotton and bamboo viscose.On the other side, tests results show the fabric resistance regarding air permeability, like one of the main requirement for this type of textile material.
