the free end becomes vertical . The angle of deflection of the clamped end from the horizontal is read on a scale fixed to the ability of textiles to recover from creases is determined by measurement of its creases the moving clamp . This angle gives the measure of the crease recovery.
The Crease Recovery Tester for fabrics consists of an arrangement to crease a rectangular test specimen under a specified load for the specified duration of time and an arrangement to measure the crease recovery angle . Creasing is carried out by pressing the folded test specimen under a load of 1 Kg between two flat surfaces . The load is applied by mean of the dead weight of the upper flat surface . The arrangement for measurement of crease recovery angle has a anodized aluminum scale calibrated in degrees mounted on a mounted on a vertical disc . The disc can turn about the axis of the scale and has a spring loaded clamp located on 00 to hold one end of the test specimen . The free end of the test specimen can be aligned against a vertical edge fitted in front of the disc .
The test specimen is mounted on a brass strip for convenience in use and is creased and held in the clamp while still fixed onto it . |
