Twill fabric is actively used in the manufacture of workwear and other products. What caused such a demand for material? Experts explain: this is due to its remarkable properties. How this material differs from other types of fabrics and what is its advantage, read below.
Twill Fabric: Description
In its segment, the quality indicator in the modern market of fabrics for special clothing is twill. The fabric is intended primarily to create a truly high-quality product. Due to its remarkable properties, the material can satisfy even very high requirements of the consumer.
Technology in the modern world, of course, does not stand still. Overalls made from twill are very popular in various fields of work.
Therefore, the primary task of a modern manufacturer is to develop new types of this fabric, even more durable, with higher characteristics and indicators.
Brief description of the material
The above material has the following features:
- high water tightness;
- wear resistance;
- crush resistance;
- good breathability.
It should be noted that basically all technical fabrics are allergenic. After a while, they cause serious irritation in people with sensitive skin. As for the twill, it does not cause any allergic manifestations at all. This is explained simply: more than 70% of natural cotton fibers include twill.
Fabric: photos, properties
One of the main advantages of this material is its heat transfer capacity. This property means that in such clothes in winter, for example, it is not cold, and in summer it is not hot. That is, a material such as twill (fabric) is quite comfortable. Photos of this matter are presented in the article.
In addition, the material is processed by special substances, and therefore the twill does not accumulate static voltage. The fabric is an ecological, clean material. This material is practical and durable.
Due to the fact that it is additionally impregnated with special substances, twill, the fabric acquires water-repellent properties and does not allow moisture to pass through.
Also, the manufacturer applies oil-repellent impregnation to the above material, since it is used to make uniforms for people who work with oily formulations. Of course, these two impregnations significantly increase the resistance of the tissue during operation.
Twill weave
The interweaving of threads in any matter plays the most important, fundamental role. Some operational qualities of the material depend on it. For example, this directly relates to wear resistance, as well as abrasion resistance.
Twill weave is characterized in that the weft and warp yarns are spaced one step apart. The main feature of this interweaving is that scars are formed on the surface of the material, which are located obliquely. They create a diagonal texture.
In Russia, the above material is made with diagonals that are directed to the right. Unlike plain, twill weave has a much smaller number of weft and warp intersections. Crossing, warp and weft overlap several threads of the system. If the number of threads increases, then, of course, the number of intersections decreases. The strength of matter depends on this indicator. For example, with increasing rapport, tissue power is lost.
Such interweaving makes the material super durable and resistant to abrasion. Derivatives of twill weaving are materials of the following types:
- reinforced;
- broken line;
- complex;
- diamond-shaped.
The indicated types of this matter also differ in density, which ranges from 220 to 360 g / m. sq.
Twill Application
This material is used as dress, lining, technical fabric.
Lining twill is used for the manufacture of hats, outerwear, as well as for other purposes. Key Features:
- relatively light matter, with sufficient density, which is made from artificial threads by twill weaving;
- pleasant to the touch, its surface has a noble sheen;
- characterized by high hygiene indicators;
- has remarkable hygroscopic properties;
- opaque
- strong enough in comparison with other materials.
The material is actively used for the manufacture of workwear, bags and mittens. Twill is also used to produce uniforms for security structures.
The fabric has special properties due to which it is used for the production of certain types of clothing: work suits, overalls, jackets, aprons and dressing gowns.
