Effect of Ramie Fiber Content on Moisture Absorption and Quick-drying Properties of Ramie-cotton Blended Textiles
Excellent moisture absorption and quick drying properties of ramie textiles has become a highlight to guide the market and sales of ramie textiles.Ramie textiles are favored by consumers because of its excellent qualities such as moisture absorption and air permeability.To study the relationship between the moisture absorption and quick drying performance of ramie-cotton blended textiles and theirs content of ramie fiber,the method prescribed in FZ/T 34014-2022"Bast fibres textile products with natural moisture abserption and quick-drying properties"is used for testing.The results show that the content of ramie fiber has a significant effect on moisture absorption and quick-drying properties of ramie-cotton blended textiles.The higher the ramie content is,the shorter the drip diffusion time of ramie textiles is,and the higher the wicking height is in the warp and weft directions,indicating better moisture absorption.The higher content of ramie shows the greater moisture permeability of its textiles,the easier sweat volatility,and the better moisture absorption and quick-drying.
