Comparison of moisture transport properties of the various woven fabrics

Giysi konforu, giysi biliminin çekici bir konusudur ve günümüzde giysi konforunun liflerin ve hatta kumaşların ısıl özellikleri, dokunma hissi vb. gibi birçok faktörlerle iyi bir bağlantısı olduğu bilinmektedir. Kumaşların nem iletim özelliği de giysi konforuyla ilgili başka bir önemli parametredir. Bu çalışmada, MMT test cihazı kullanılarak farklı liflerlerden dokunan kumaşların sıvı nem iletim özelliklerinin göstergeleri, derecelendirilmesi ve sınıflandırma metotlarının değerlendirilmesi üzerine odaklanılmıştır. % 100 selülozik ve poliester kumaşların aksine, selülozik/poliester karışımı kumaşların etkili bir şekilde sıvı absorbsiyonu ve iletimini sağladığı bulunmuştur.

Farklı dokuma kumaşların nem iletim özelliklerinin karşılaştırılması

Clothing comfort is an attractive topic of clothing science and today it is known that clothing comfort have a good relation with the several factors such as thermal, tactile properties, etc of fibers and also fabrics. Moisture management property of fabrics is also another important parameter related with clothing comfort. In this study, it was focused on the evaluation of indices of liquid moisture management properties, grading and classification methods of woven fabrics with various fibers by using MMT tester. It was found that unlike 100% Cellulosic and PES fabrics, Cellulosic/PES blended fabrics allowed the liquid absorption and transportation efficiently.
