The formaldehyde content of fabrics is the total amount in textiles. It includes formaldehyde, hydrolyzed formaldehyde, and free formaldehyde. The formaldehyde may come from additives used in textile production. These include anti-wrinkle agents, color-fixing agents, and softeners. The formaldehyde in them may bind to the fibers through reactions, or exist in the textiles in free…

Fabric pilling and abrasion resistance are two key indicators of textile durability during use and wear. Pilling refers to the formation of small balls of entangled fibers on the fabric surface, while abrasion leads to loss of fibers or mass. Testing these properties is crucial for fabric development, quality control and ensuring functionality. International standard…
