Abstract
During textile finishing, fiber damage is often caused by abrasion [31], resulting e. g. in grayed spots and light streaks. This damage is often only recognized in a later finishing stage when large quantities of material have already been damaged. Natural fibers and cellulose regenerated fibers are more susceptible to mechanical damage than synthetics; however, synthetics also suffer damage.
