What is it about?
This study compared three brands of fabrics used for the production of Ghanaian public basic school uniforms based on selected performance characteristics to determine their suitability for the end-use in terms of the properties assessed. The parameters evaluated with the use of experimental procedures included yarn count, weight, colourfastness and shrinkage. Strength, elongation and other parameters were not determined in this study.
