Abrasion Resistance of Coated Textiles
topic
Coated textile abrasion testing evaluates coating adhesion retention, surface cracking, and substrate exposure under Martindale, Taber, or bespoke protocols, measuring mass loss of coating layer and functional property retention such as water resistance or electrical conductivity after abrasion cycling.
Role
Validates durability of functional coatings on protective, medical, and electronic textiles where coating integrity is inseparable from product function, guiding polymer formulation, coating thickness, and substrate pre-treatment optimisation.
