What defects are automatic rejects for polyester fabric?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #34495e; margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"><strong>Barre marks<\/strong> (dye stripes), <strong>severe shading<\/strong> (color difference within the roll), <strong>off-odors<\/strong>, and <strong>repeating defects<\/strong> (like a needle line running the full length) are automatic rejects, regardless of the point score.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #fff3e0; border-left: 5px solid #ff9800; padding: 20px; margin-bottom: 25px; border-radius: 4px;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: #e65100; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\">4. How do you inspect polyester for snagging quickly?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #34495e; margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\">Use a <strong>&#8220;Glove Test.&#8221;<\/strong> The inspector wears a rough cotton glove and lightly wipes the fabric surface. If the glove catches fibers easily, the fabric has poor snagging resistance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f3e5f5; border-left: 5px solid #9c27b0; padding: 20px; margin-bottom: 25px; border-radius: 4px;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: #4a148c; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\">5. What causes barre in polyester fabric?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #34495e; margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\">Barre is caused by physical differences in the yarn (mixing dye lots, different texturing tension) or mechanical issues in knitting (uneven tension feeds). It creates horizontal lines that absorb dye differently.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #fffde7; border-left: 5px solid #fbc02d; padding: 20px; margin-bottom: 25px; border-radius: 4px;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: #f57f17; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\">6. What causes heat shine on polyester and how to prevent it?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #34495e; margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\">Heat shine occurs when polyester fibers (which are plastic) partially melt or flatten under high heat and pressure. It happens during ironing or high-temp calendering. Prevent it by using a Teflon shoe on irons or lowering stenter temperatures.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #e0f2f1; border-left: 5px solid #009688; padding: 20px; margin-bottom: 25px; border-radius: 4px;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: #004d40; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\">7. Is pilling a defect in four-point inspection or a lab test issue?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #34495e; margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\">If pilling is visible on the fresh roll, it is a Four-Point defect. However, pilling usually develops after wear. Therefore, it is primarily a <strong>Lab Test issue (ASTM D3512)<\/strong> that must be verified on a sample before bulk production.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #eceff1; border-left: 5px solid #607d8b; padding: 20px; margin-bottom: 25px; border-radius: 4px;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: #455a64; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\">8. How many points are acceptable per roll?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #34495e; margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\">For standard apparel, <strong>20-24 points per 100 sq. yards<\/strong> is the industry norm. For high-end or expensive fabrics, buyers may demand <strong>&lt;15 points<\/strong>. Individual rolls exceeding 40 points are usually rejected.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #e1f5fe; border-left: 5px solid #03a9f4; padding: 20px; margin-bottom: 25px; border-radius: 4px;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: #01579b; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\">9. What lighting should be used for fabric inspection?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #34495e; margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\"><strong>D65 (Artificial Daylight)<\/strong> is the primary standard for checking color and defects. TL84 (Store Light) is often used to check for &#8220;Metamerism&#8221; (color changing under different lights).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #e8eaf6; border-left: 5px solid #3f51b5; padding: 20px; margin-bottom: 25px; border-radius: 4px;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: #1a237e; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\">10.

Can oil stains be removed or is it a reject?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #34495e; margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\">Small oil stains on polyester can often be cleaned with a spot gun (using acetone or solvent). However, if the stain is large or the fabric is delicate (like satin) where cleaning leaves a &#8220;ring&#8221; mark, it is a <strong>reject (4 points)<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"background-color: #f5f5f5; border-left: 5px solid #9e9e9e; padding: 20px; margin-bottom: 0; border-radius: 4px;\">\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 16px; font-weight: bold; color: #424242; margin: 0 0 10px 0;\">12. What\u2019s the difference between four-point and ten-point system?<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size: 14px; color: #34495e; margin: 0; line-height: 1.6;\">The <strong>Four-Point System<\/strong> penalizes defects by size (1-4 points). The <strong>Ten-Point System<\/strong> is an older method used mostly for heavy canvas\/denim, penalizing defects as 1, 3, 5, or 10 points. The Four-Point system is far more common for apparel fabrics like polyester.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u0939\u092e\u093e\u0930\u0940 \u092b\u093c\u0948\u0915\u094d\u091f\u0930\u0940 \u0917\u093e\u0907\u0921 \u0915\u0947 \u0938\u093e\u0925 \u092a\u0949\u0932\u093f\u090f\u0938\u094d\u091f\u0930 \u092b\u093c\u0948\u092c\u094d\u0930\u093f\u0915 \u0928\u093f\u0930\u0940\u0915\u094d\u0937\u0923 \u092e\u0947\u0902 \u092e\u0939\u093e\u0930\u0924 \u0939\u093e\u0938\u093f\u0932 \u0915\u0930\u0947\u0902\u0964 \u0939\u092e \u091a\u093e\u0930-\u0938\u0942\u0924\u094d\u0930\u0940 \u092a\u094d\u0930\u0923\u093e\u0932\u0940, \u0938\u093e\u092e\u093e\u0928\u094d\u092f \u0926\u094b\u0937 \u0914\u0930 \u0906\u092a\u0915\u0947 \u0911\u0930\u094d\u0921\u0930 \u0911\u0930\u094d\u0921\u0930 \u0915\u0947 \u0932\u093f\u090f \u0917\u0941\u0923\u0935\u0924\u094d\u0924\u093e \u0928\u093f\u092f\u0902\u0924\u094d\u0930\u0923 \u091a\u0947\u0915\u0932\u093f\u0938\u094d\u091f \u0915\u094b \u0915\u0935\u0930 \u0915\u0930\u0924\u0947 \u0939\u0948\u0902\u0964.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2640,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2575","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-polyester-knowledge"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2575","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2575"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2575\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4068,"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2575\/revisions\/4068"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2640"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2575"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2575"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/fabric-supplier.com\/hi\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2575"}],"curies":[{"name":"\u0921\u092c\u094d\u0932\u094d\u092f\u0942\u092a\u0940","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
