Impact of yarns and weave structures on the coolness of woven fabrics
A lightweight and cooling woven fabric for summer was developed by selecting and combining different cooling fibers.Twelve samples were produced by selecting polyester/mint blended yarn as warp yarn,nylon fiber as weft yarn and plain,and twill and satin as fabric weave to investigate the impact of different weft yarns and fabric structures on the thermal and moisture comfort properties of the fabrics.The results showed that twill and satin fabrics had better thermal and moisture transfer performance;plain weave fabrics provided a good cooling sensation upon contact;cool nylon indeed enhanced the cooling of the fabric,but it showed poor moisture transfer performance in tightly woven structures.Micro-denier nylon had similar thermal and moisture transfer performance to cool-feel nylon but had lower air permeability and cross-sectional nylon had better moisture transfer performance but lower thermal conductivity.
