Physical and mechanical properties of Tenun Pahang fabrics using alternative yarns / Engku Liyana Zafirah Engku Mohd Suhaimi … [et al.]

An investigation on the properties of Tenun Pahang fabric performances using alternative yarns was conducted. The studies were made in order to evaluate whether the Tenun Pahang fabric could be produced economically and at the same time maintain the fabric quality. Traditional Tenun Pahang fabric us...

Traditional Tenun Pahang fabric uses silk for both warp and weft. For this project, two alternative yarns were used which were bamboo and modal which were a little lower in cost compared to silk.
