Although modern sailcloth materials are extremely complex, a considerable degree of disorder is still present in the evaluation of their quality, and experience is still the most important parameter in assessing a product. For those reasons, precise characterisation and evaluation of modern sailcloth is a topic that requires systematic investigation, both in view of defining relevant characteristics & parameters, and in defining and adapting adequate testing methods and procedures & evaluation of results. The paper presented here is a contribution to the scientific and professional approach to the topic.
