“…So, mesh rib knitted fabrics were observed highest maximum wetted radius values especially in the top surface which contact to the skin. The lower value of maximum wetted radius for the top surface of the fabric means less damp touch and less cool sensation, providing better comfort to the wearer [25]. It was observed that the loop length changes for both knitting types did not affect on the maximum wetted radius value.…”

In this study, it is aimed to change the loop length of knitted fabrics with a mesh structure and to investigate the effect of loop length differences on thermal and moisture transmission properties. For this purpose, six fabrics with different loop lengths were produced in two different knittings and yarn types. Thermal conductivity, thermal absorptivity, thermal resistance, air permeability and moisture management properties of these fabrics were measured according to standard test methods. The results showed that as the yarn gets finer and loop length increases, the air permeability values will increase. It was observed that as the loop length increase, the overall moisture management capacity (OMMC) and thermal absorptivity of the fabrics will decrease. The thermal resistance values of two ply textured polyester mesh knitted fabrics decreased with increasing density and the highest loop length two ply textured polyester mesh knitted fabric showed the highest thermal resistance value.

“…It was concluded in the study that fabrics plated with PP inner layer required long time to be wet due to the hydrophobic nature of the polypropylene fibre and the sweat was found to be transferred through the fabric mainly by capillary forces. The sweat was directly transferred to the outer layer of the fabric and absorbed by the MPRSVY yarn which is very hydrophilic due to its micro-pores (Chandrasekaran et al, 2018). Some research related to PP based composites were evaluated in terms of some physical properties such as tensile strength, flexural performance, water absorption…etc.…”

Polypropylene fabrics are one of the most preferred products for outdoor textiles. With the risks posed by the pandemic in the last year, outdoor textiles are expected to have some additional features such as antibacterial, antivirus, antimildew properties. Antimicrobial finishing and water repellency treatment may be applied consecutively on polypropylene fabrics. This research aims to investigate the effect of sequential finishing process by applying of different antimicrobial chemical ratio (0, 5 and 10 g/l) and fluorocarbon-based water repelling substance (0, 30 and 50 g/l) on antimicrobial efficiency and water repellency grades of outdoor fabrics. According to the results of statistical analyses, it was determined that antimicrobial efficiency against S. aureus and C. albicans was statistically influenced from process type at significance level of 0.05, while antimicrobial efficiency against E.coli microorganism was not statistically influenced from process type. Antimicrobial activity of outdoor samples was more satisfying against S. aureus microorganism. Water repellency results generally improved as the applied amount of water repellent substance increased for the fabrics treated with the same amount of antimicrobial substance.

“…[ 1,2 ] Moisture management textiles refer to the garments with one‐way transport property, allowing the moisture to transport away from the body of a wearer. [ 3,4 ] People tend to sweat or emit perspiration heavily in many conditions, for example, in a humid and hot environment, or in a state of intensive exercise. In these cases where perspiration adheres to human body, inefficient moisture transport can not only affect the thermal‐physiological comfort but also result in discomfort and possible skin conditions.…”

The interaction between water and fibers is critical in the physiological comfort of garments, especially inner wears. Antigravity directional water transport and ultrafast evaporation are the two key indicators to be expected of a high‐performance moisture management textile. However, it is practically still challenging to make the textiles with continuous directional liquid moisture transport and outstanding prevention of water penetration in the reverse direction. In this work, a Janus functional textile achieved by graphene oxide (GO) coating is developed, with the GO coating side on the textile working as the outer side for its good moisture absorbing and spreading features and the reduced GO coating side serving as the inner layer because of its hydrophobicity. Performance of the as‐prepared textile is characterized by moisture management tester, exhibiting remarkable accumulative one‐way transport index R (1145%) and a desired overall moisture management capacity (0.77) within 120 s, the negative R value (−690.4%) indicates an ultrahigh directional liquid moisture transport capacity. The Janus textile can provide a source of inspiration for the development of more adaptive textiles and garments to maximize personal comfort in demanding situations under hot and humid environments.
