CTE 1401 Exam #1 Questions andComplete Solutions Graded A+
How do we select the correct textile? - Answer: Performance, Intended Use, Product Care, Cos,
Consumer Preference (eco-friendly, natural fiber?), Applicable laws
Fiber - Answer: The basic unit from which all textile products are made
Yarn - Answer: A continuous strand made with fibers and used to knit or weave fabrics
Fabric - Answer: The cloth produced by interlacing o interloping yarns, or by binding fiber webs
Dyeing - Answer: Adding color to textile materials or products
Printing - Answer: Applying dye, pigment, or other chemicals to produce designs on textile materials or
products
Finishing - Answer: Typically the last step in the manufacturing process to prepare the fabric for use. It
includes a variety of processes to enhance aesthetics and function
Textile Manufacturing Process - Answer: 1) Fiber
2) Yarn
3) Fabric
4) Dyeing
5) Printing
6) Finishing
Fabric Performance - Answer: Includes factors that affect appearance, comfort, and durability
,Opacity - Answer: The ability of the fabric to hide the object behind it. It is affected by the cover fact
(ratio of the surface covered with yarns to the total surface) as well as the transmission of light through
the fibers and yarns. Thus, tightly woven fabrics constructed with transparent or translucent fibers may
have an excellent cover factor, but not opacity
Drape (Aesthetic) - Answer: The way a fabric falls while it hangs. Flexible fabrics hang in pleasing folds;
stiff fabrics do not drape well
Dimension stability (Aesthetic) - Answer: Ability of a fabric to resist shrinkage or gain during use and care
Snagging (Aesthetic) - Answer: The pulling of yarn(s) during use
Pilling (Aesthetic) - Answer: The tendency of fibers to work loose from a fabric surface and form balled
or matted particles of fiber that remain attached to the surface of the fabric
Colorfastness (Aesthetic) - Answer: A product's ability to retain color during use and care. In some cases,
the transfer of color from a colored textile to another textile is also considered
Moisture Management (Comfort) - Answer: Play an essential role in maintaining comfort, including:
Repellency, Absorbency, Wicking
Repellency (Moisture Management) - Answer: Ability of the fabric to resist water penetration; water is
not held within its structure
Absorbency (Moisture Management) - Answer: Ability of the fabric to take in and hold
water/perspiration
Wicking (Moisture Management) - Answer: Ability of the fabric to transport liquid water or water vapor
from one location to another. In textiles, this transport is achieved by capillary action along fiber
surfaces
Air Permeability (Comfort) - Answer: A measure of air flow through a fabric
, Thermal Insulation (Comfort) - Answer: The fabric's ability to provide insulation by trapping air adjacent
to the body. Thermal insulation enables the body to maintain its core temperature in cold climates.
Fiber content, yarn bulk, and fabric construction affect thermal insulation.
Stretch and Recovery (Comfort) - Answer: Relates to fabric's ability to stretch and return to its original
shape. Stretch and recovery allow easy body movement in garments that are snug and do not design
ease. Fiber elongation, elastic recovery, and yarn texturing affect stretch and recovery.
Static Buildup (Comfort) - Answer: The charge that builds up in fabrics made of fibers with poor electrical
conductivity and low moisture absorption. Fabrics with static buildup cling to the body in dry conditions.
Tactile Properties/Fabric Hand (Comfort) - Answer: Includes properties such as texture, stiffness or
smoothness that affect how a fabric feels when in contact with skin. Fiber flexibility and resilience, yarn
structure and loftiness, and fabric structure each affects how the fabric feels when it contacts the skin.
Skin Irritants/Allergens - Answer: Addresses factors that may cause skin irritations due to allergic
reaction or contact with a rough fabric surface
Strength (Durability) - Answer: A measure of the force required to break or tear or in some other
manner cause a fabric to rupture. It is often used as an indicator of how long a fabric will last.
Abrasion Resistance (Durability) - Answer: A fabric's ability to withstand wear due to rubbing against
another fabric or surface
Weathering (Durability) - Answer: A fabric's ability to withstand environmental conditions such as
sunlight, heat, and moisture as well as exposure to polluting gases. Combinations of these factors also
examines since they interact to create damage in materials.
Care Label Rule - Answer: Governed by the FTC (Federal Trade Commission), care labeling is mandatory
in the US. They help consumers make purchasing decisions and allows for proper care of clothing. Can
be written in English or as symbols.
Info Required on Care Label - Answer: -Wash
-Drying
