ABSTRACT
The paper is focused on the identification of mechanical properties of a sail technical woven
fabric (yacht sailcloth polyester) style 480 AP with MTO (Medium Tempered Optimized)
finish. The non-linear elastic behaviour of the fabric applied for sails is investigated under
uniaxial and biaxial tensile tests. Comparison of non-linear elastic parameters with others
polyester coated fabrics is made. This paper is intended to be an introduction to a comprehensive
investigation on sail technical woven fabrics.
