“…Glove colors may affect the visibility of gloves in the grass or bushes since gloves are easy to lose in the garden (Tilley, 2006), so instead of brown or green, participants suggested fluorescent colors such as orange or hot pink. Dark colors are not only harder to find but will also absorb more UV rays and get hot more easily (Zhou, Reddy, & Yang, 2005). Catherine said about UV ray protection and thermal comfort, “Dark colors will get hot being in the sun … make it a lighter color” and Kristy talked about how some colors have poor visibility, so consider making gloves “light green, so when we drop it on the ground you can find it.”…”

The purpose of this study was to identify important design factors for protective gardening gloves and consider possible design features for these gloves. A mixed methods procedure was used involving market research, an online survey, and a focus group. Ten design factors of protective gardening gloves were identified: skin cut and puncture protection, dirt and insect protection, UV ray protection, water resistance/waterproofness, dexterity, comfort of movement, breathability, ease of donning and doffing, durability, and ease of care. Potential consumers' preferred design features for each design factor were investigated through the online survey and focus group. Designers can apply the identified preferred design features in this study as guidelines to satisfy each design factor so that designs can be more easily accepted by consumers. The results of this research can be beneficial for designers in the development process of protective gardening gloves and ultimately benefit gardeners.

“…Personal protective textiles are classified into industrial protective textiles, civilian protective textiles, medical protective textiles, sports protective textiles, and space protective textiles based on their end use. [5] Highly extensible elastomeric fibres, cellulose-based fibres, commodity synthetic fibres, high strength inorganic materials, and high-performance polymer fibres are the six categories of fibres. Polyester-based elastic fibres and shape memory polyurethane are two new developments in highly extensible elastomeric fibres.…”

The fireworks industry is well known for being a hazardous industry, from the initial manufacturing phase to the transportation and storage of fireworks. The industry is situated in Sivakasi, Tamilnadu where more than 800000 people are employed. Most of the accidents occur in the filling of chemicals and storage of raw materials due to improper handling, lack of awareness on safety measures and not using any protective clothing (wear). Hence an attempt is made in this research to develop a protective wear from PVC coated Cotton fabric. In the initial phase, cotton yarn is selected based on commercial availability. The yarn properties such as yarn count, lea strength, single yarn strength, elongation and TPI were evaluated as per standards. It is observed from the results that the cotton yarn has lea strength of 75.39 lbf, single yarn strength of 0.26kg/f and Rate of elongation is observed as 18.8 mm. In the second phase the yarn samples are coated with PVC and fabric samples are developed. The fabric samples are tested for flammability, LOI, abrasion resistance, air permeability and comfort properties. Key Words: protective wear, cotton, pvc, flame retardant, comfort.
