Clothes are prone to pilling due to abrasion during wearing, so the abrasion and pilling resistance of the fabric is particularly important.

Generally, fabrics with high abrasion and pilling resistance have good strength, wear resistance and elasticity. Fabrics with high abrasion and pilling resistance include wool, cashmere, silk, polyester and nylon. In addition, some fabrics are specially treated to increase their abrasion and pilling resistance.

Fabric abrasion resistance is the ability of a fabric to resist frictional wear and tear. It is an important factor in determining the life of the fabric. The source of fabric abrasion resistance is the fibers used to make the fabric. Different fibers have different degrees of abrasion resistance, with some being more resistant than others. For example, cotton has low abrasion resistance while nylon has high abrasion resistance.

Pilling is the formation of small fiber balls on the surface of fabrics due to friction and wear. This is an aesthetic issue that affects the look and feel of clothing or other items made of fabric. The source of pilling is also related to the type of fibers used in the fabric, as some fibers are more prone to pilling than others. Pilling can be reduced by using higher quality fibers or by treating the fabric with treatments such as an anti-pilling finish.

Abrasion and pilling testers are used to measure the abrasion resistance of fabrics. They simulate the wear and tear that fabrics may experience in everyday use, such as rubbing against other fabrics or objects, washing and drying. The test involves placing a fabric sample between two abrasive surfaces and then subjecting it to a specified number of cycles. After the test is complete, inspect the fabric for signs of wear or pilling (the formation of small fiber balls on the surface). The results can be used to determine the durability of different fabrics and compare them to each other.
