Why is it necessary to check the moisture content of fabrics?

The moisture content of fabric directly affects quality and user experience. If moisture is not checked, it can lead to several issues:

Why is it necessary to check the moisture content of fabrics?

  • Fabrics, yarns, and fabrics are susceptible to mold: High moisture levels exceeding the fabric's standard moisture can cause fabrics to become damp, moldy, emit unpleasant odors, fade, and decrease durability. Conversely, excessively low moisture levels can make fabrics brittle, prone to tearing, and difficult to dye.
  • Causing economic damage: Products that become moldy, torn, or faded may require spot cleaning, re-washing, or complete replacement, leading to additional costs.
  • Storage Challenges: Products that are not in use and stored in fabric warehouses can easily become moldy if moisture control is not maintained.
  • User Experience: High moisture can give the sensation of being damp, while low moisture can create a stiff and dry feeling, leading to a poor fabric experience for users.

What is the standard moisture content for fabrics?

Thai Tuan LMS understands that each type of fabric, with its different materials, has specific moisture standards to ensure optimal preservation and provide users with the best experience. Therefore, we have researched and established moisture standards for each type of fabric after washing and ironing, implementing strict quality checks to ensure the best laundering results.

  • Cotton Fabric: The remaining moisture content is approximately 10-11%. When touched, the fabric feels slightly crisp, neither too wet nor too dry.
  • Wool Fabric: The remaining moisture content is about 18-20%. When touched, the fabric feels soft and slightly damp.
  • Silk Fabric: The remaining moisture content is around 8-10%. When touched, the fabric feels cool and smooth.

Below are the moisture standards for different types of fabrics for your reference:

Moisture Control Using Moisture Meters at Thai Tuan LMS

Currently, there are several methods for checking the moisture content of fabrics, including sensory methods, weighing methods, and the use of moisture meters. Each method has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Moisture Control Using Moisture Meters at Thai Tuan LMS

  • Sensory Method: This method relies on the experience and intuition of the inspector. However, it lacks accuracy and is only suitable for preliminary evaluations.
  • Weighing Method: This involves weighing the fabric sample before and after drying to calculate the water content. While this method is quite accurate, it can be time-consuming and is not suitable for quick assessments.
  • Using Moisture Meters: This is the most modern and accurate method. Moisture meters allow for quick and precise measurement of water content in fabrics.

At Thai Tuan LMS, we utilize specialized moisture meters to check the quality of fabrics before delivering them to our customers. The moisture levels measured are by the standard moisture content guidelines published by the American Association of Textile and Testing Materials.
