“…The effect of novel yarn structures has also been investigated by some researchers [11,12]. The fabrics produced from bulked and hollow yarn structures give the higher thermal resistance as it can entrap the air within the intra yarn pores.…”

“…The influence of yarn structure on the thermal properties of fabrics has been reported by researchers such as Ozdil, Marmarali, and Kretzschmar (2007), Das and Ishtiaque (2004), Das, Kothari, and Balaji (2007) and Ozçelik, Çay, and Kirtay (2007). Oglakcioglu and Marmarali (2007) compared the comfort properties of plain, rib and interlock knitted fabrics made from cotton and polyester yarns.…”

Regenerated cellulosic fibre made from bamboo is gaining popularity for apparel use due to its improved functional properties. This paper presents the modelling of thermal conductivity of knitted fabrics made from blended yarns of cotton and bamboo fibres using an artificial neural network (ANN). Five parameters, namely knitted fabric structure type, yarn linear density, bamboo fibre proportion (%), fabric thickness and fabric areal density, were used as inputs to the ANN model. The developed model was able to predict the thermal conductivity of fabrics with very good accuracy. The trend analysis of the developed model revealed the influence of various input parameters on the thermal conductivity of knitted fabrics. These findings can be judiciously used for the selection of optimum material and structural parameters of knitted cellulosic fabrics for a particular end-use.

In this study, air permeability, water vapor permeability and wicking properties of certain woven fabrics, which are important comfort properties for clothes and garments, have been investigated. The effects of raw material (modal, Lyocell), weave pattern (plain, 2/2 twill, 1/3 twill, 2/2 matt) and weft yarn density (18, 22, 26) on these properties have been analysed graphically and statistically. The comfort characteristics of fabrics (permeability and wicking properties) are closely associated with the changes in their structural parameters: 2/2 matt and plain woven fabrics, where porosities are high, have better permeability and wicking properties. Increasing weft yarn density lead to decreases in porosity, resulting in decreased permeability and wicking properties. Increasing yarn twist increased the porosity of the fabrics. Lyocell fabrics showed improved permeability and wicking properties over modal fabrics due to Lyocell fibers' high percentage of fibrillary structure.
