Heat and Moisture Transfer Properties of Knitted Fabric of a Novel Pearl- CelluRose Blend Fiber on Comfort Sensations

摘要

Choosing knitted fabrics made of a novel pearl- cellulose blend fiber and other functional fibers including Modal, milk fiber, Richcel, Dupont C, Tencel, cotton, viscose etc as samples. Four different experiments are made to test wicking effect, air permeability, water vapor transmission and thermal insulation of these fabrics. Then gray clustering analyze method is introduced to check and evaluate the comprehensive comfort of these fabrics. It was proved the effect of heat and moisture transfer properties of pearl-cellulose blend fiber is similar with viscose fiber and with good characteristics on comfort sensations for wearing. Its knitted fabric is an ideal material for underwear.
