Pilling
• Pilling is a fabric surface fault in which “pills”
of entangled fibres cling to the cloth surface,
giving a bad appearance to the garment.
• The pills are formed during wear and
washing by the entanglement of loose fibres
that protrude from the fabric surface.
• Under the influence of rubbing action, these
loose fibres develop into agglomerations
anchored to the fabric by a few unbroken
fibres.

Factors Affecting Pill Formation
Pilling, dynamic process
Pilling rate > pill break-off rate = pill buildup
Pills build up is affected by
Number of protruding fibre ends
Fibre linear density
Fibre length
Fibre cross sectional shape
Fibre strength modulus and friction
Yarn twist levels
Fabric construction
Dyeing
Finishing

Mechanism of pilling
Pilling is generally considered to
be a self limiting process
occurring in four main stages
fuzz formation
fuzz entanglement
pill growth
pill wear-off

Mechanism of pilling (cont..)
Figure 1 and 2 show test results of maximum
pilling of various fabrics. The curve number 2 in
Fig 1 is the most typical pill curve with a distinct
maximum pills followed by a progressive
reduction in pills as pill wear-off exceeds pill
formation. If the fabric is madeup of strong fibres
the third step i.e. pill wear-off delayed and the
pill density remains close to the maximum
number 6.

– Singeing reduces pilling
– Shearing and cropping reduces pilling in polyester/wool fabrics.
– Heat-setting at higher temperature for suitable duration reduces
pilling.
– The cellulosic materials in super steam for heat setting should be
preferred for reduction in pilling.
– Low heat setting temperature for longer duration in
polyester/cotton fabric reduces pilling
– Effect of heat setting of a polyester fabric under tnesion at
different temperature is given in table 5

ICI Pilling Box Tester (cont..)
– During testing, apiece of
fabric is sewn in place
firmly round a rubber tube.
It is rotated in the pilling
box at 60r/min for 5 hours.
– After tumbling, the extent of
pilling is assessed visually
by comparison with
arbitrary standard.

– Selecting the correct raw materials (fibre).
– Manufacturing yarn through proper pill resistant steps
– Constructing fabrics with suitable parameters
– Using finishing and dyeing techniques for reducing pilling
– .
Control of Pilling

Control of Pilling (cont..)
– Pilling on finished fabric is on the average 85% less than in grey state.
– In polyester/ cotton fabric singeing, shearing and cropping and heat
setting reduces pilling tendency.
– Enzyme treatment given low pilling i.e. Bio-polishing
![Page 38: PERFORMANCE EVALUATION & TEXTILE MATERIAL ll](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022052700/55a40ecc1a28ab413d8b4726/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
– Fabric pilling can be overcome by the joint efforts of fibre manuf
actrures, yarn producers, fabric designers and finishers.
– Any anti pilling treatment must not affect the desirable aesthetic, comfort
and performance properties of fabric.
