Why is air permeability of fabrics important to test?Air permeability is another important factor affecting the comfort of fabrics. Sportswear, windproof, and coldproof clothing have higher requirements for air permeability of fabrics. Parachutes and filter cloths are types of industrial textiles.
They have special needs for air permeability. The air permeability of fabrics depends on the number and size of gaps. These gaps are between the warp and weft yarns and between the fibers. It also relates to factors like yarn density, fineness, and twist. These factors relate to fiber properties, yarn structure, fabric thickness, and density. The “air permeability” refers to a fabric’s performance.
It lets air pass through when there is a pressure difference on both sides. Under the specified pressure difference, air passes through the fabric. This happens on both sides of the fabric. Air flows only when a pressure difference is on both sides of the fabric.
What is a good score on the air permeability test?A “good” air permeability score depends on the application and material. Different applications and industries have varying requirements for air permeability. Here are some general guidelines. They show what might be good air permeability in various contexts.
Textiles (Apparel and Technical Fabrics):
Breathable Fabrics (e.g., sportswear, outdoor clothing): 10-50 cm³/s/cm². Higher values may be desirable for increased breathability.
Windproof Fabrics: 0-10 cm³/s/cm². Lower values say better wind resistance.
Geotextiles:
General Purpose Geotextiles: 100-300 cm³/s/cm². Values within this range usually or show good drainage properties.
Filter Fabrics: 50-200 cm³/s/cm². The exact need depends on the specific filtration application.
Nonwoven Fabrics (e.g., medical textiles, hygiene products):
Medical Textiles: 10-100 cm³/s/cm². Lower values are often better for barriers. Higher values may be preferred for breathability.
Hygiene Products (e.g., diapers): 100-300 cm³/s/cm². This range generally indicates a good balance between absorbency and breathability.

Why paper air permeability is important?The purpose of paper permeability testing is to evaluate the resistance of paper to airflow through its pores, or the ability of paper to allow air to pass through. This test is important in paper production, quality control, and applications, and its main objectives include the following:
Assessing the pore structure and density of paper
Purpose: Air permeability testing can help determine the size and number of pores in a paper and their distribution. The pore structure has a significant impact on the performance of paper, with denser paper having lower air permeability and vice versa. Different paper types require different air permeability depending on the application, and the test can help determine the scenario in which the paper is suitable.
Applications: This test is particularly useful in the production of writing paper, printing paper, tissue paper, filter paper, etc
Printability Evaluation
Purpose: Air permeability directly affects the ink absorption of paper. In the printing process, the paper permeability is appropriate in order to make the ink uniform penetration and drying, to ensure the quality of printing. If the air permeability of the paper is too strong or too weak, it may lead to poor printing results.
Application: Printing materials such as newspapers, magazines, books, and wrapping paper need to be tested for air permeability to ensure that the paper has good printing performance.
Evaluation of Filtration Performance
Purpose: For certain special-purpose papers, such as filter papers, tea bag papers, cigarette papers, etc., air permeability directly affects their filtration performance. These papers need to be able to allow a moderate amount of air and liquid to pass through without compromising their primary filtration function.
Application: Air permeability testing of filter paper can help optimize its filtration performance so that it can effectively filter gas or liquid in actual use.
Paper Quality Control
Purpose: Air permeability is one of the important indexes of paper’s physical properties. Through air permeability testing, we can monitor whether the production process of paper is stable and ensure that the product meets the quality standards. If the air permeability of the paper deviates greatly, it may indicate a problem with the production process and require adjustment.
Application: Paper manufacturers usually conduct air permeability tests on a regular basis as part of product quality control.
Adapting to different applications
Packaging applications: Some packaging papers require low air permeability to ensure that the contents of the package are protected from outside air (e.g. food wrappers). Some packaging materials that require air permeability (e.g. fruit wrappers) require moderate permeability.
Tissue paper and paper towels: These products require high air permeability value for comfort and absorbency.
