The Martindale method stands out as a widely used and reliable approach for determining fabric abrasion resistance. It offers three distinct methods – determination of sample breakage, mass loss, and appearance quality change. This article delves into the details of these three Martindale-based determination methods. Relying on China’s national standards GB/T21196.2 – 4—2007, it aims…
