Frictional Behavior of Textile Fabrics Part Ⅰ: Sliding Phenomena of Fabrics on Metallic and Polymeric Solid Surfaces

摘要

This paper presents experimental results on the sliding of fabrics on metallic and polymeric solid surfaces, showing the influence of the compression load at the solid-fabric interface and the nature of the solid material, and the effect of sliding speed on the sliding friction coefficient. At the same time, a physical description of the sliding phenomenon is given. On the basis of these observations, a theoretical approach is developed to explain the sliding friction behavior of fabrics on solid surfaces. Part Ⅱ will deal with the waving and stick-slip phenomena, which are evident in the sliding process under certain conditions.
