Abstract

47 kinds of woven fabrics were prepared with different fibers, thicknesses, weights per square meter and percentage covers. Statistical analysis method was employed to study the influence of the material and structure parameters on near-infrared transmission of these fabrics. Firstly, the effect of materials on near-infrared transmittance was determined through the contingency table analysis. Then the parameters significantly influencing near-infrared transmittance were found out and correlations among them were discussed by direct correlation and partial correlation analysis. Finally, regression equation of the near-infrared transmittance was established using factor analysis and principal component extraction. Results show that materials have little influence on near-infrared transmittance of woven fabrics. However, thickness, weight per square meter and percentage cover of the fabrics are closely related to near-infrared transmittance. Because there are correlations among thickness, weight per square meter and percentage cover, two new factors are extracted to establish the regression equation. The equation has an error rate of less than 5 % and thus can predict near-infrared transmittance precisely.
