Evaluation of Woven Fabrics for Comfort Properties in Children's Sum- mer Wear

摘要

This paper evaluates the comfort properties of eight kinds of woven fabric commonly used for children's summer wear in Hong Kong, China. Due to the expan- sion of children's wear market and the quality require- ment for parents, objective and subjective measurements are the main methods used to evaluate the chosen fabrics for garment designers and consumers as reference. Objective measurement was carried out through ex- Periments by means of the Kawabata Evaluation System For Fabrics(KES-F). Experimental tests on fabrics in- Clude compression, surface, bending, air permeability, Thermal and tensile.
