Abstract
Pilling is a phenomenon that has a long cause trouble in textile industry. It is the
formation of pills or knops on the surface of woven or knitted fabrics caused by friction and abrasion.
If fabric has a pronounced tendency to pilling, their appearances suffer severely after a short period
of use. The pilling of fabrics is a serious problem for the apparel industry. The use of anti pilling
finishes is one of the best techniques to control the pilling of the fabric. In this method fabric is
treated with special anti pilling agents to prevent pilling that promote adhesion of the fibres in the
yarn or the fabric. This paper endeavors to optimize the application of different anti pilling agents at
different concentration and pH levels on the Tensile Strength of P/C fabric for best results. The
results exposed that different anti pilling finishes have significant effects on the Tensile Strength of
fabric at different concentration level however different pH levels have no considerable effects.
