| description | In this research software was designed for assessing the inter-yarn zone fabric porosity of Tencel plain
weave fabrics in terms of flow of dye liquor by using Matlab. Fabric images were captured at constant
light intensity and magnification using an optical microscope and image analysis software. The captured
images were first converted into monochrome image and then into binary image at specific threshold
value (150). The percentage of white pixels in the binary image were calculated which assessed the
fabric porosity in percentage. The loosely woven fabric gives higher percentage of fabric porosity as
compared to the tightly woven fabric. This software has potential to calculate the fabric porosity of
plain weave fabric manufactured from any type of raw material. |
