Calculate Fabric Shrinkage Percentage (SP)



Formula

The formula to calculate the Fabric Shrinkage Percentage (SP) is:

\[ SP = \left(\frac{OL - FL}{OL}\right) \times 100 \]

Where:

Definition

Example

Let's say the original length (OL) is 100 inches and the final length (FL) is 95 inches. Using the formula:

\[ SP = \left(\frac{100 - 95}{100}\right) \times 100 = 5 \% \]

So, the fabric shrinkage percentage is 5%.

How to Calculate Shrinkage Percentage

Definition: Shrinkage percentage is the percentage reduction in the size of a fabric after washing or processing.

Formula: \( \text{Shrinkage Percentage} = \left( \frac{\text{Original Length} - \text{Final Length}}{\text{Original Length}} \right) \times 100 \)

Example: \( \text{Shrinkage Percentage} = \left( \frac{100 - 95}{100} \right) \times 100 \)

How to Calculate Shrinkage Rate

Definition: Shrinkage rate is the rate at which a fabric shrinks over a period of time.

Formula: \( \text{Shrinkage Rate} = \frac{\text{Shrinkage Percentage}}{\text{Time}} \)

Example: \( \text{Shrinkage Rate} = \frac{5}{1} \)

Formula to Calculate Shrinkage

Definition: Shrinkage is the reduction in size of a fabric after washing or processing.

Formula: \( \text{Shrinkage} = \text{Original Length} - \text{Final Length} \)

Example: \( \text{Shrinkage} = 100 - 95 \)

How to Calculate Percent Shrinkage

Definition: Percent shrinkage is the percentage reduction in the size of a fabric after washing or processing.

Formula: \( \text{Percent Shrinkage} = \left( \frac{\text{Original Length} - \text{Final Length}}{\text{Original Length}} \right) \times 100 \)

Example: \( \text{Percent Shrinkage} = \left( \frac{100 - 95}{100} \right) \times 100 \)

Cost of Shrinkage Formula

Definition: The cost of shrinkage is the financial loss due to the reduction in size of a fabric after washing or processing.

Formula: \( \text{Cost of Shrinkage} = \text{Shrinkage Percentage} \times \text{Cost per Unit Length} \)

Example: \( \text{Cost of Shrinkage} = 5 \times 10 \)
