Description

This study investigates the functional properties of protective woven plain, twill, and Sateen fabrics to understand their suitability for specialized applications. In this research work composite yarns are fabricated using core as E-glass and stainless-steel metal filament with diameters of 0.025, 0.050, 0.060 and 0.075 mm, combined with polyester and high-performance polyethylene as sheath materials. The research focuses on developing a protective woven fabric by core-to-sheath ratios to enable analysing key parameters such as cut resistant, tensile strength, abrasion resistance, stiffness, and air permeability, with an emphasis on the impact of weave structures on these properties. The findings reveal significant variations in performance based on fabric type, highlighting the strengths and limitations of each weave pattern. This research findings aim to guide textile engineers and designers in selecting appropriate weave structures for specific industrial, medical, and protective applications, ensuring an optimal balance of durability, functionality, and usability.
