Abrasion is the mechanical deterioration of fabric components by rubbing them against another surface. Abrasion ultimately results in the loss of performance characteristics, such as strength, but it also affects the appearance of a fabric [1]. Many parts of apparel, such as collar, cuffs and pockets, are subjected to serious wear in use, which limits their serviceability. The abrasion resistance of textile materials is effected by many factors (e.g. fibre fineness, yarn count, yarn type, weave etc.) in a very complex, and as yet little understood manner [2].
