Abstract:Usually, in footwear technology the upper materials are backed with heat bonding textile materials in order to increase the tensile and tear strength and the thermal resistance of the entire structure due to higher thickness. The paper studies the effects of the backing with heat bonding textiles on air permeability, an important comfort characteristic. The influence of the heat bonding with lining on the air permeability was studied using 5 types of bovine leather for upper materials and 4 types of knitted an… Show more
